Fascinating to see the stages between larvae and adult hornets, and how your chickens are instinctively careful about the insects with warning stripes but eat the white ones.
The beekeeper's narrating skills is amazing. He has a soothing voice and explains his subjects very well. I like how he utilizes a scientific approach when explaining his subjects.
It's wonderful to see the chickens getting their meal, but also there is something hilarious and terrifying about the sense that this guy really just squared up to a hornet's next with nothing but a Tennis Racket and won.
"I use a racket to swat the worker hornets as they come out of the nest." This man really substitutes insecticides for BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA. That's so raw.
After seeing videos where hornet nests are dispatched with flamethrowers, liquid nitrogen, and spray foam, I appreciate seeing a guy going “low tech” with a badminton racket, net, and ice cooler to get the same job done.
7:35 It's hilarious how the chicks all stood back, stared and went quiet when you first placed it in. Just waiting for one of them to take the chance to go at it 🤣
@@jiliu2042 roaches are much less chitinous and hard than adult wasps and hornets since their exo is pliable to be able to compress to squeeze into small areas
@@TjoaWeiHanI have seen ours go for Japanese beetles (which aren’t native here and are a menace-). But they seem to get annoyed if they have to work especially hard when there’s something easier. They’re also not too sure what to do about especially large bugs. Found a giant worm and they all started at it.
i liked when he said he had to be quick closing the net or else an angry hornet swarm happens, then the net gets caught on the wall and is stuck open as the nest drops in ooops
@otsokoskela7839 yes he does, but you can still get stung by bees while having it on. So I wouldn't doubt that wasps could bypass it as well and sting him.
I raised the same kind of silkies and they're absolutely lovely pest control. Mine would hang around at my elbows while helping my mom in the garden and eat up all the grasshoppers, slugs, snails, and anything else we stirred up while weeding. Once they had full bellies, they were pretty content to settle in my lap for a nap in the sunshine. ♥
Here in the UK, my family has wood burning stoves in the fireplaces (very old house) in summer, sometimes hornets come down the chimneys and crawl out the vent's, I wind up grabbing them with welding gloves and you can feel the struggle, both from grabbing and crushing them. very tough critters - one time I tried to find out how tough, holding it on an electric swat for 5 minutes, smoking the whole time, no harm, spraying it with raid, five minutes after exposure no discernable effects. and the UK breeds are smaller. The fact that Asian breeds are now crossing the pond....
For as scary as they may seem, hornets can build the most amazing nest. It has its own beauty in a sense, the patterns and layers design I guess we can call it natural art !!
All social insects are fascinating tbh. But I was also reminded and "shocked" by the perfect hexagonal symetry of those alveolae. Without protractor, compass, ruler...
The hornets are terrifying but the way the chickens reacted after they all decided they found something edible is also frightening. I imagine this is what dinosaurs acted like
your so thoughtful to consider giving them to your chickens they love eating larvae and its quite healthy for them im so glad you took them into consideration that they could have a nice snack from it
I wonder if there are barbs on the legs or stingers at a certain stage? I am sure he has checked for those before safely feeding but I know what to do if I ever had hungry chickens and a hornet's nest problem.
My late mom grew up on a farm and talked about how much chickens LOVED getting a wasp nest thrown to them. The pupa are super rich in nutrients, they also work awesome as fishing bait.
as a canadian who would love to visit japan.. the sound they make bouncing off your tennis racket is the most terrifying sound ive ever heard... as a teenager my friends and I were being attacked by a black hornets nest so we lit it on fire and dissected it after, I wish I'd had a chance to pull the larvae and pupae out to look at them but they liquified.... the city employees tasked to remove it were very happy though!!
What a great treat for the chicks! I'm glad you didn't throw away the nest. The larvae are excellent food for pet reptiles and birds or even as fish bait. Fish love them too.
I got stung by those suckers before, their sting will send an instant jolt to your nervous system. If you don't have a strong heart, those suckers can embolize you in seconds, but for me, I passed out after multiple stings and woke up in our military base TMC unit. It left a nasty taste in my mouth for a few weeks, and no insects would dare venture towards me, even red ants moved away from my bare feet.
I love how skeptical my chickens are every time I give them something besides their pellet feed lol. It doesn’t even have to be something new…like pumpkin for instance, they get that all throughout fall/winter, yet they act like their world has been turned upside down every single time 😂. Is one of your babies a crossbeak?
its so interesting how they go after any of the pupae as long as its still a colorless grub, but seem to almost instinctually avoid the 'wasp' corpse even if its dead. i find that fascinating
I remember being in Kyoto Japan on top of a mountain enjoying the view. I heard a loud buzzing sound. Louder than a bee. It was the exact hornets in the video. And honestly the one I saw was much more bigger. Me and my girlfriend booked it so fast. It was the scariest insect I’ve ever seen.

The biggest hornets that I've ever seen was in Japan in Kyoto. When I saw them, I was shocked and fascinated at the same time. They looked 2 or 3 times bigger than the hornets in America, and the colors seems very bright.
Wasp and hornet larva are some of the best panfish bait you can get. If kept in a paper bag in the refrigerator, they stay alive but don't develop much. Once they cap over the bait quality is less.
Thank you for uploading! This was very interesting to see, especially the different stages of development of the larvae and pupae in the nest. And those chicks are adorable!
That nest was so beautiful with its layers! I've always thought wasps and hornets are so interesting, but living in someone's shed is not a good place for them to be.
I know that this is off of the topic of hornets but I love that he included English captions in the video, it was very satisfying to understand his language!
I walked into my dads shed onetime and loomed up to the ceiling and spotted a wasp nest with at least 10 wasps on it. They all turned in unison to look at me. I left my dads shed. Lol
The first time I have ever saw one was about 8 years ago in my house, in a very leafy part of London. The thing was huge, I could clearly see its eyes 6 meters away, if you are use to tiny insects, nothing prepares you for it.
@@Polyfron Cosmos obviously tried to make a joke in answer to OP, I'm very aware of that and I didnt pretend anything.

very inspiring work to take down hornet nests while respecting and learning about their life cycle and behaviors. and thank you for teaching us. there are no enemies in nature. only different creatures living together. sometimes we need to remove habitats that are within our homes, but we should never forget that we share earth with other living creatures. thank you for the reminder of the complexity and wonder of life.

This is video especially resonates w me more because you actually showed the different stages from larvae to pupae then to adult! SO FASCINATING! and the part where you feed your chickies to see their reaction to the different stages of the hornets life was so interesting i just had to comment about! Keep it up my g! youre doing great with these vids!
The way this guy takes out a hornets nest is the most Japanese thing I’ve seen! Everywhere else we use sprays, smoke, vacuums, fire, gasoline! He just stands there and uses the age old fly swatter!
Hmmm. Interesting. We have chickens at home as well. And while we never had hornets to feed them, there was a certain bug, adult and probably about as large as one of those hornets, which they gladly gobbled up. Me and my father were digging up some earth in their place to use as fertilizer and there was this specific insect, which had thick legs at the front, probably used to dig. They looked really interesting and there were a ton of them, so the chickens got to feast.

This man really substitutes insecticides for BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA. That's so raw.
And he wastes none of his moves. Man's a professional hornet assassin.
based. insecticides may harm other species he may not have intended to target, but using the racket just beats the intended hornets only
@@oofoof4875 Plus he's feeding them to his chicks, so he definitely wants to avoid insecticide.

Irony.
Thoae are such large, plump larvae. The chickens must jave been delighted
“Hey she pecked it and didn’t die? Game on-“
"Oh wait, that's food?"
It was amusing just watching them wait for each other to have a go at it. They had a protein packed meal lol

Seeing the first chick take the first larva: *salutes* "Your sacrifice will not be in vain."

And chickens (for the disposal)
IKR!
Usually chickens don't eat "hard insects" like wasp, those take time to digest, but larvae and bland insects like crikets or roaches, those can do
Roaches also have hard skeletons
True! My chickens also don't bother at beetles and such, but they'll gobble up anything that looks slimy/squishy/shiny including snakes and lizards
@@jiliu2042 roaches are much less chitinous and hard than adult wasps and hornets since their exo is pliable to be able to compress to squeeze into small areas
@@TjoaWeiHanI have seen ours go for Japanese beetles (which aren’t native here and are a menace-). But they seem to get annoyed if they have to work especially hard when there’s something easier.

there are worse things you can be doing at 6am
2:38 im sorry but that last slap before he took the nest down was hilarious
that slap was personal 😂😂😂
Bonk
i liked when he said he had to be quick closing the net or else an angry hornet swarm happens, then the net gets caught on the wall and is stuck open as the nest drops in ooops
I could watch Silkie Chickens all day 😂 the noises are too cute!!!!!
That's cos they're still making baby sounds lol
For small chickens they are loud as adults, still utterly fluffy and adorable though
If you have anxiety then download the audio and play it when you are getting anxious.
Okay.
The part with the neighbor was so funny! "Ma'am, please go inside for your own safety. I'm smacking a hornet nest."
That was both horrific and adorable! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and work!
Amazing how you stayed calm when the net got stuck after the nest fell in. I would have screamed.

What's that even mean? lol
@@blazednlovinit I think it's the Japanese word for brother/sister/sibling

He was calling the older larvae pupating older sisters. Oneesan means older sister in Japanese.
The fact that those things make a pretty audible sound when they hit the wall after being swatted is kinda terrifying.
And they’re not the biggest hornets in japan either.

You have the exoskeleton to thank for that. Very hard, made of chitin.
Quite interesting to see one of the most docile and gentle chickens devouring such feared insect.
I've heard wasp larvae referred to as nature's chicken nuggets, so this feels like a reversal of sorts
Chickens? Gentle? Please.

they regurgitate what they find and then the larvae process it into a form that's optimal for the adult workers. amazing.

its so interesting how they go after any of the pupae as long as its still a colorless grub, but seem to almost instinctually avoid the 'wasp' corpse even if its dead. i find that fascinating
