Ya Jeff, shipping is what's a killer, I brought 20,000 pounds so the shipping/product was do'able.

I see a number of things advertised here that I can buy cheaper elsewhere, but I don't always post it. I never know the quality of both, so I keep quiet.

If I want to tell about it, I will post it as a new topic, I won't try to hurt another beek's ad.

wax for dipping is wax for dipping one can qc it if one wishes... is this forum a private place to advertise free??? or a place to share info and help people learn about bees and save money... pretend to intend or keep quiet... now if u must know some time ago i tried to help above who requested a good price on wax as i had recently made a big order n looked around good i sent a email to him inform him so as to save a buck regardless of his pollen patty attitude-- now i see he who has the bucks can skin the little guy who needs to save a buck and so i posted all to see the same message... any one can get it .85 lb shipped to any dadant branch n included w ur wooden ware. now... i dont want to be a wax broker i just like to keep the bees... is nice to help people with info and nice to get some sometimes. im not trying to hurt anyone w a free ad posting here just letting others know on this free posting site that is same wax just cheaper.

No, actually, it is a place to air personal grudges and let people understand what type person you are. Welcome, and keep up the good work.

Hay,hey guys...

First, Allen is being helpful, he also has tryed to help me find wax when I was looking for some. I was just joking about it, have no hard feeling toward Allen at all, I though it was funny.

I just have more than I need & trucking was a large part of the wax price.

Idde & Allen, if you were closer I'd buy both of you a beer. :)

yea everything in bulk is cheaper favors the big corp wish more beeks could go into such big ventures together save all some dough... recently got truckload sugar table grade 100 drum split w other beeks to save on the shipping etc worked out well 75 a drum for sugar drum n shipping vs walmart many trips gas etc. anyone interested i can get the info but at that price is truckload at or around 100 drums... i have no personal grudges and ive been reading a long time just dont care to post too busy to argue or whine. was a little at a loss about the patty issue really believed in it researched alot was just looking for a little nudge in the right direction-- i believe alot of what keith says about nutrition is key to bees health. if nutrition is optimal then all other probs n parasites can be dealt with. however i did try n although i wished i had more solid info on some key points i did success make great patty at .68 lb finish product made at home w good brewers yeast pollen etc was concerned about rate bees ate it-- patty spoilage--used good bit vit c n ascorbic acid to aid n keepage n palatability also container canola oil keep supple moist-- bees loved it very much packed in a ton natural pollen this spring, if lots capped brood no worries u cant put enough at one time like 5-7 lbs w two or three deeps capped brood-- so lots what he sayed about the patty i see is sure true placement amount quality etc an i thanked him once before and now again.. but i appreciate the welcome anyways.. ya keith be nice to have a beer have to be after the flow ends for me aug then pull honey then splits rear queens maybe time a beer then patty thru late fall winter just gotta have those hives head high w capped brood come maple flow/ clover thistle flow maybe 10,000 lb comb honey i can do extra spring light beautiful honey if anyone interested.
