This is my Ultimate Guide to Getting Started Keeping Bees including an identification guide to help you read a frame.
I've been a keeper of a single urban hive for about six years, and this is the third or fourth time I've watched this video. There is none other on the net that even comes close in thoroughness and clarity. Thank you again.
I appreciate your clear and concise videos. 🐝
Thanks! I try. There's a lot of dead air when opening a hive which I find to be a little too boring to show.
You did a wonderful job and I appreciate you explaining about the frames and what I will be seeing.
Thank you!
What a fantastic video!! You have a great personality and are easy to follow. Thank you.
I’m watching everything I can that you are viding out. I guess? Because you are inspecting your hive you are wearing your full PPE? Can you (again to us newbs) talk about protection. You rock. Keep doing what you do. 🐝 I’m just getting into bees and I’m over 70 yo. Yup
When it comes to protection, it's up to you what you're comfortable with. I strongly recommend starting out wearing a veil. Ive had a bee flu up my nose and in my ear more than once. Suits are not necessary and you can easily wear long pants (like jeans) and a long sleeve shirt. You just want your clothes baggy and lighter in color though the average blue jeans is a fine color. Suits are handy to have but I didn't need one until I was moving bees. A hive of 50k bees is not happy when you move them in summer. Suits can be really hot. Propolis does stain clothes so whatever you use, it will get ruined. You also really want sting resistant gloves. I eventually stopped wearing gloves most of the time but bees have cranky times of the year when you'll want them or for things like splitting a hive and harvesting honey. I usually wear a suit when checking certain hives and gloves because they're crankier and the mosquitoes are REALLY BAD there so the suit is partial mosquito protection. If you want to cut back on start up costs beekeeping, then just get a veil and gloves. If you're scared of getting stung, then a veil connected to a jacket would be better because there is a gap where you tie up your veil that bees can get through. Having a bee in your veil is a little scary at first.
I understand and am going slow with the process and investigating everything before making my purchases. Thank you for all that you do. @@BeekeepingMadeSimple
@@kathygleason6913you're very welcome. I was very scared of getting stung my first year but I just bought a veil and gloves. I will say, the bee suits with a hive tool pocket are pretty nice😊😊 😊😊
Another great video with some great information. Thank you. 🐝🐝
Glad you enjoyed it
Information straight and clear. Thank you. Love your video.
Thank you!
great inforative video. Have a friend who's interesting in getting started with Bees. Going to send her this video.
Awesome, thank you!
Really educational and practically helpful video.
I’ve had bees for one year now (bought packages and marked queens).
Moved from NY to FL and it’s a completely different way of beekeeping. Your videos are even more pertinent now!
what a ride.. . thank you
A very calm and detailed video on the comings and goings of things in various stages of a beehive. Like the descriptions of them making their comb, the kinds of food they collect to feed their young, what they put in the cells to store, and what it looks like is nice to see. Having a stand or another beehive next to it seems helpful to place heavy boxes with frames of honey on when inspecting a colony seems useful and advantageous. How to find the various levels or the kinds of bees is beneficial too. Funny to observe the added happenings of having a taped up cracked helmet, the symbiotic relationship of ants and bees, plus pictures of capped honey, sealed brood, and the diverse ages of growth during their raising of a young bee is interesting. Like the downy appearance of a newly hatched worker, what an egg, larvae, and pupae look like as it transforms into a young bee going on walk about over her new home on honeycomb appears rewarding for instance. The examples of nectar, pollen, and bee bread are of great view. It would be hard to not leave a hive open for a long time to see and observe all you described. It must be fascinating to watch the waggle dance and how they communicate what, where, and how far to find the needs to collect and gather those things to bring back home. To happen to see the queen and her attendants for the first time, to touch and hold a drone that can't sting you, and watch all the activities that go on daily is also a site to enjoy. The questions & answers at the end are great to go back and watch are handy to complete. Thanks for this wonderful glimpse into the life and home of honeybees.
Thanks for watching and commenting. Beekeeping is such a special hobby that few people get into but those of us who persevere and have hives of our own are rewarded every time we open a hive.
Loved seeing the baby bee birthing
I know. So sweet!
Thank You!
Great video

You're welcome! There's one day left to enter my contest to win free access to my online beekeeping course! All you have to do is comment on a video where one of my kids or my cat make an appearance.
I have been doing beekeeping for 2 years. Tell me about the diseases occurring in it and its treatment.
On this video at the 7:40 mark after the varrola mite I noticed a grub / worm rapidly going into a cell. Looks like it might be a SHB right?
