    Mike Barry Bees
    St. Joseph Abbey
    It's always fun when I get to help Mike Barry do his one bee removal a year as I know it will be an adventure. And this time, as has always been the case, it did not disappoint. If you enjoyed this video, check out the links below where Mike and I removed bees together in the past. Thanks for watching. God's peace to all.

    When I was made aware of the 🐝 on the back side of the house, my only concern was not to harm them. My son was the first to find them, because a few and gotten in the house through a small hole. The guys explained to me how and why they got in the house. However, this was such an awesome experience, and I learned a lot about 🐝. I enjoyed you all and thank you once again!!!!!!

    Mr Ed, I was betting you already had that Queen before you were talking about breaking out the Honey Bandit. After all there were so many bees and all it takes is to have foggy glasses or to glance away for a split second at “The World Famous Mike Barry”. The flow at my place is similar (not much) and my friend about 15 miles away has had and harvested a decent early amount. Maybe our Lord feels we didn’t thank him enough last year for the bountiful harvest he gave us then, I know I didn’t and can never thank him enough for what he’s given me! God is in control!

    Hey Mr. Ed! So I was trying to figure out how many layers would usually go in a stud space? I guess you'd say it's going to be 3 and 1/2 in deep. So if we figure one and a half inches center to center for comb building, That wouldn't leave us room for two full layers and a little more. In your experience, how many layers have you usually found in walls?
    I guess I should learn to watch the whole video before commenting, so now I see two layers filling the stud space. Wow, I'm seeing a very vital colony making for this excellent cut out. As Ormond Aebi might have described it: "a splendid spring colony."

      @JeffHorchoff  Год назад +1

      A beautiful hive for sure, and the bees were very gentle as well. Often I ask for a donation to do the work we do to help defray the cost of doing the removal, but in this case, not even that was asked. A professional bee removal cost can range from $300.00 to $600.00 depending on the difficulty of the removal. And if it is very difficult, the charge could be upwards of one thousand dollars. Expensive, yes, but a lot of work as you said. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them.

    Good time Charlie Jeff & Mike, isn’t curious that the majority of wild swarms off bees always work from above top to bottom while we keep our bees frames hives with entrance from under, what can we learn from this?

    • @JeffHorchoff
      @JeffHorchoff  Год назад +1

      The reason feral bees work from top to bottom in structures other than frames is the comb has to be attached suspended down to support the comb. On frames, it matters not where the bees start as the comb is already supported no matter where they begin. Thanks for watching. God's peace Benjamin.

    Amazing to see the way the brood was organized. Beautiful colony; too bad they moved into a building.

      @JeffHorchoff  Год назад

      Actually, I'm glad they moved into a structure that I could relocate them to the abbey, these bees have some very good genetics and I grateful to have them in our apiary. Thanks for watching. God's peace William.

    Wow, those massive slabs are amazing, you can clearly see the bands. Just a question, why do you put the comb top side down?

    • @JeffHorchoff
      @JeffHorchoff  Год назад +1

      That way when I frame it up I know which way is the top of the comb. Also, andy honey will run down and not over the brood. Thanks for watching. God's peace Kennith.

    Just to let you know. Here in deep east Texas just across the lake from Many, La. Our flow is exactly like ya'lls. The Tallow flow is just now starting. Only about 20-25% of the tassels are mature. Thanks for what you do

    • @JeffHorchoff
      @JeffHorchoff  Год назад

      What a terrible honey harvest we are going to have this year, but the good news is the bees are doing fantastic. I'm just hoping they will gather enough nectar so I won't have to feed them this winter. By the way, from Monday till Friday I will be in your neck of the woods, we will be fishing Toledo Bend from Many. I'm looking forward to catching some fish. Thanks for watching. God's peace Cindy.

    If these bees were ready to swarm, what would prevent them from swarming at the Abbey? Would you split them?

    • @JeffHorchoff
      @JeffHorchoff  Год назад

      Relocating bees stresses them, and that stress almost always removes the desire of the bees to swarm. Thanks for watching.God's peace Larry.

    • @JeffHorchoff
      @JeffHorchoff  Год назад +1

      It's to give everyone a second chance to see the handy work of bees. Almost all beekeepers are interested in brood patterns and the make up of the comb. Thanks for bearing with the annoying parts and for watching. God's peace Santo.

    seems there been more drama in Jeffs life recently.
    I seen 2 videos with no queen.
    RUclips did not show Jeffs videos for like 9 months EVEN though I am subscribing.
    But last 1 - 2 months they are shown again.

      There are many who tell me about not receiving notifications anymore even though they are subscribed. I don't know what to say about that, but , I still post a video every Friday and will continue to do so. Glad to have you watching again. God's peace .

      @@JeffHorchoff I see, every Friday, so youtube thinks I seen enough of you, which is impossible, a happy guy, with a beard, and a ton of experience. And youtube still do not notify me of all. Not if you say every Friday with Ralf and the rest of the team.
      So maybe youtube only show me the videos others up-voted. Not sure how everything works inside youtube.

    Jeff, how often do you find the queen when you are doing a cut out?

    • @JeffHorchoff
      @JeffHorchoff  Год назад

      I would say about 75% of the time I find her, 20% I vacuum her, and 5% I do not get her at all. Of course that's just an estimate. Thanks for watching. God's peace David.
