  1. @Honey_Delight @BeverlyBees @TheBeeVet @bradleytdrake @BisForBeekeeper @keephoneybees @JessicaPBees And thank you to you.
  2. @BeverlyBees @TheBeeVet @bradleytdrake @BisForBeekeeper @Honey_Delight @keephoneybees @JessicaPBees @HoneyFactor Thanks
  3. @Kriskxx that will work fine.
  4. @WithinTheHive No they are on time, I have 4 tubes sealed this evening. They seal the tube once full then start another.
  5. @CaeliP I just let them swarm but if you want to prevent them you have options. Expect a healthy colony to swarm each year, naturally.
  6. @CaeliP All the cells in the lower left will be drones. You can see the larger cell size.
  7. @CaeliP The big guys are the guys! Drones. A queen cell looks like a peanut shell.
  8. Nerve agent kills #bees with undetectable doses. What do nerve agents do to us in undetectable doses? Who studies that?
  9. @WithinTheHive Speaking of mason bees, I found my first 2 tubes sealed over this morning and my apple tree is not yet blooming.
  10. GE corn & sick honey bees - what's the link? j.mp/HUzcdO 4 ways #bees are exposed to #pesticides
  11. @Kriskxx check crownbees.com
  12. @WithinTheHive I don't think it is but still cool that you have it.
  13. @BoilsBoils It is a hive without bees set out in hopes of attracting a swarm; it works. I have never bought a package of bees.
  14. We now have 5 bait hives out. Have to get 2 more ready and then we wait.
  15. @WithinTheHive That is what I was thinking; looks pretty simple to me and more fun than a drink and wet doll!
