I have really found your Videos very useful and helpful! I am hoping to get into I first Bee Keeping Adventure Next year! Thanks for all the videos that you post!!
Great Video! I agree about the blackberry! If you have enough of them pure blackberry honey is as awesome as apple blossom if not better! If you plant it all round the edge of your property you can have maximum amount with out it getting in the way. Just a little bit of maintenance poking the ends back into the soil so they root where you want them to root and not cause a problem That is a really good hive you got there!
Kamon please explain what you believe to be the main reasons why a Colony swarms, you mentioned it several times in this video but i was unable to follow along as to why you believe they are getting ready to swarm. Thanks for all the great Videos !!
Thanks Kamon , we Canadians are jealous. We have a few weeks to wait before we start getting into our hives. It’s nice to see you calmly teaching even when the bees are trying to staple your socks to your to your legs ! All the best!
Great inspection. Lots of pollen. I too love to see and look at the stuff they are storing. Lots of bees in that hive. Looks great. Thank you for sharing!!!
Make trellises for the blackberries and rasberries! You 'll have less problem then! I love it when you show avery aspect of beekeeping. Both of you a very tuff persons, not backing away. Looking forward to take down the front tarpaulin I have wraped around the shed around my bees. Sun is coming back to us. Lot's of love from Sweden!
Dude I know it's small but just the concern and rapport between you and Laurel warms my heart with so much negativity in the world. Even just little things like not editing out warning her about the bees being extra grumpy just bring a smile to this old fart's face. Keep on being educational, wholesome, and funny, and a huge thanks to everyone behind the camera who works with you on the bee yard and the filming and everything!
Yes that hive is soon to double in population. Bet you are about to add syrup, as that slim honey stockpile is about to dry up. Great looking colony for mid March, good luck from Nashville.
Thanks for the video as always, Kamon and Laurel. Just an idea for a new video series: Compare honey production between single brood vs double (or even triple) brood hives. For the study to be solid, perhaps need to have a few hives of each type and average up the results. I am still a relatively new at bee keeping. I started with double brood box first year and had switched to single ever since. Dealing with a massive hive is just not fun at all. It also takes a lot more time to do an inspection. Single brood box is a lot more manageable. But I wonder if it will always produce less honey, assuming no swarms. My swarm prevention method is to take a frame or two of brood out from the brood box every few weeks.
I'm glad you mentioned the possibility of more than 1 queen because when you got down to the bottom box, my 1st thought was there might be more than 1 mated queen in that hive! Here in Mid-Missouri, USA, assuming that I have hives like this one (which I do), I would be splitting each of those boxes into 3 separate "new" hives - each with a frame of OTS notched cells or their own queen cell, and moving the queen(s) to another yard (at least 2 miles away) in her (their) own 5 frame NUC box(es) (with the idea that in 5 to 7 days she would need to be moved into a full size 8 or 10 frame box). However, I have to wait another week or so for the weather to cooperate here. That's a good thing because I still have a lot of equipment to make. Any unmarked queens that I find when I'm working with my bees are going to get marked with last year's color (green) and all of my new queens are going to get marked with this year's color (blue).
Fairly gentle bees from a Texas perspective ;p They look pretty calm on the comb. The defensive colonies here will flood the air with attack pheromone when you pop the cover off, its so silly. If you ever down this way Kamon, bring your camera, ive got an extra full bee suit for you to borrow ;p
Awasome colony rite there !!! , its a shame they cant all be like that ! I agree im done with trying to help 0nes that wont help theirselves! Yes i can relate to being hung up in the BlackBerry bushes, an bee stings on the ankle, i wasnt as polite as you though.😆 that smarts !!
Live and learn? My beekeeping career started last year with 2 nucs. One nuc went queen-less about 3 weeks in. Watching Fred Dunn and his affinity for Bee Weaver Queens I ordered one. The Queen was immediately accepted, I now I call her the “African Queen!!” In my newbee opinion, this is one hot hive!?? I have to re-queen the hive, but I have to wait for Queens to be ready in my area, which probably will not be until the first or second week in May?? Hive might swarm by then?? Never again with a Bee Weaver Queen. I have seen a lot of stuff posted about their Queens all over the blogs, and most say how “hot” their hives are?? 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Ive got some hives on a thornless BlackBerry farm if u have one near u is a great place for hives. BlackBerry blooms all summer and fall if they have multiple varietys planted . I'm seeing same thing in east TN had to give some singles room tons of pollen. Magnolia trees starting to pop in mountains.
Kamon...you talk about hives going into the winter with 8+ frames of bees being what you like. I had two hives going into the fall/winter with that number of bees but when the hive went into "reduction phase" for the winter they drew down to like 2-3 frames of bees on their own. How do you keep hives from reducing?
I'm not Kamon lol but...Make SURE your mite levels low as possible, and Make Sure Queen has room to lay Winter bees starting late August,or you'll go into winter with old bees that'll die of old age before spring, should drop 7-8 frames solid brood in Sept usually which are your winter bees,at least that's timing in MO..
I feel your pain Kaymon! It's nice to see experienced bee keepers have days like I do! 😄 As a new beekeeper, my question to you is how do you know that the nectar flow has started? Here in Central Texas we are seeing wildflowers starting to bloom and blooming trees all over the place. Seems like an early spring going on. I was thinking of putting some honey supers on early. But I don't want to put them on too early.
if the colonies are healthy and strong better to early than to late. when the flows hit within days they can be plugged. A good flow will produce white wax in your hives
Great video! Would love to watch how you equalize your hives and any other swarm techniques you do. Unfortunately I'm in an area where you can't mate any queens without getting extremely hot bees. Waiting for late April for mated Queens will be a real chore.
Stephen Murphy how long have you had them, did you get them from a swarm or a reputable source? How far were you? Depending on where you live, if it was a swarm that could be Africanized because that’s never happened to me...
I have good bees it’s still a little to cold to open up the hives. Still go and watch to see how they are doing. Some days they’re not happy to see me.
Watching you makes me really consider a bee suit this year. Never had one cept a veil the last 5.....but I usually have days like yours, rubber bands around the britches bottoms at the ankles. STILL..waiting on my pkg...(local) and chomping at the bit to get going. But alas...RAIN here as well!
There is a theory I heard(don't know from where) that colonies with roughed up hives tend to do better with mite load. I will have to find it and link it here.
Another great instructional video!!! Good morning Kamon! Question: When installing a package into all new equipment, is there any recommendations for keeping them from absconding? Should they be trapped within the box for a few days? Does the application of a little Lemon Grass Oil inside box help?
James Taylor you can try to put a queen excluder between the bottom box and your brood box but most of the time the new queen can fit through that because she hasn’t been laying. If you have another give take a frame of some eggs and young larvae, they won’t leave young brood
Kamon when you move the frames will you move bees and brood or shake the bees and just move the frames with the brood? The reason I am asking is I have two hives just like the one you were in and two that are good and one fair and I was going to move some frames after hearing your logic but was wondering about how you will do the move.
Kamon Reynolds - Tennessee's Bees, ok Kamon you’ve convinced me I just ordered it and it will be delivered tomorrow. Hopefully it will come before I dive into my favorite hive to see if the Queen cells are capped! I found one frame yesterday at my other location that had 9 cells on it and a bunch were capped. It’s crazy here in central AL in the middle of March, several weeks ahead of last year!
Good day Kamon with the amount of pollen I saw would you put one frame in a freezer for later. Even with adding that patty. You can always put back in later?? Your thoughts please
I got stung last summer five times in gloves like those. I also saw something and had to pull a frame or two. Bam, bam, bam. They did not like those gloves or me that day.
I have one Colony that are just like that...it has tow boxes with two suppers with all frames bottom and top bees....plenty of honey with about tow to three good frames or more of pollen...when i open the hive they just start to boil out. Iv taken two splits off that hive and you can work them just fine....😱
Nice large strong colony there, I would surmise you could beef up lots of weaker colonies with several frames considering all the brude that will be hatching out. Recovery would be quick and maybe no swarming to boot.
You could probably split that hive into 3 or more, or use some other technique to demonstrate swarm prevention. Have you tried gaiters to stop bees from going into your pant legs? They’re cloth covers that go over the top of your shoes and the bottom of your pant legs. Intended for hikers or others who walk through wilderness to keep bugs and rocks out of your pants and shoes.
It's comforting to see that even the best of beekeepers have to wear more protection at times. Sometimes I criticize myself when the bees are angry and I put on the jacket and veil saying to myself, "bet Kamon wouldn't do this".
Maple or Willow,red henbit, and orange Dandelion pollens.. two weeks they gonna wanna fly to the trees..I had strongest hives and most losses ever this winter,used Apivar and Oxalic,but REALLY wet winter and I had alot on ground with plastic under hives but still too much moisture,I'm soooo sick about it, trying to save Combs today and start building back up
I'm raising my bees for the bees and pollination. If I get honey great, but I want healthy bees. I would rather have 2 good healthy colonies than a gallon or 2 of honey. I will get some honey later, it's all for my bees right now.
I like my bees like I like my women, sweet and productive with a little mean streak! (I say that as I look at the latest thumbnail from "The Honeystead *wink wink*) Those bees look great Kamon, I'll tolerate hot bees like that as long as they are doing that well. I agree with your swarming conclusion, I'd be getting on top of that ASAP. Rain here every day as well, that crap is getting old fast.
@@jamesodriscoll1509 Ewe, no thanks. We're having a cold snap now with a high of 43 today and lows back to freezing and I don't even want that...let alone snow of any depth. I'm ready for summer.
Those gloves with the black palm surface look a like couple big ol bear paws coming in. Learned the hard way, when I picked up a box of black nitrile gloves on sale at HF. Girls were not happy. Same thing, they can be pissy if I’m wearing jeans, settle down if I switch to white painter’s pants. Question: at what point do you consider a hive “pollen bound”? I’ve had a couple this year with so much pollen it seemed to limit room for laying. Thanks, great vids as always, o7.
The first hive you went into you pulled the third frame from the left then you slide over one frame and reinserted the first frame removed in the fourth position that in itself will disrupt a hive. There’s a reason the drone brood was in that position of the hive and now you moved it. The bees know best and moving frames around for our benefit does not benefit the bees and why feed processed pollen when they are bringing in there own? The same issues with people eating too much processed food and sugar is the same issues affecting bees by feeding sugar water and processed pollen... just a fact, this also applies to livestock that we inject with hormones drugs to benefit us for the wrong way we keep them in pens and not in the open pasture as nature intended.
Bin wochin for a year by now. The diference is are qweens selekcion. Hives like thet one will always consum everything. And nide your halp. We select diferent. Can't be around them ol year halping them. They nide to doo sam work. Thet is how you select for a region and the klima. 👍 from Vinko with russty english.
For once I disagreed with something. When you said you have so many bees down your pants it's not even funny,,,,, sorry but it was a little bit funny. :)

what can you do to prevent swarming if you are pollen bound and out of drawn frames? Could you install a pollen trap?
