Thank you to those who replied. I think that late-may for Washington Island is about right. That is usually around the time I first have to worry about them swarming on me, so maybe mid-may would...

I guess everyone is busy worrying about the survivability of the workers this time of year and not the "lazy" bees - no one wants to reply to help Ralph and me out?

nobody?

I was looking into trying a few virgin queens this spring and I was trying to remember when I normally have a good supply of drones. I recently moved and can't find my notebook. I think it was...

Sorry to see that, it should be great habitat for them in about three years though - at least now you have an excuse why you can't ever get a deer :)
too soon?

Well she eats a ton of my honey, it would only be fair to get some advertising out of it :)

You can vote everyday until the 21st, thank you for your support fellow bee-lovers!

LOL - yeah, definitely not in the cards for me either Birdman - it takes time, patience and commitment - I've used all mine up on family, work, and bees. Maybe one day I'll take it up, probably only...

Welcome to the site - always good to have new beekeepers in the hobby, especially from Wisconsin. Lots of questions and their solutions can be found on this site. I hope your first season is a...

Another wisconsin bee-lover to the site - I'm glad you found us!

We are farming some land - I thought the name was kohler - but i could be wrong on the spelling - the farm is on the SE side of the island. They sold 20 acres off of it a couple of years ago. Rae(?)...

Masker? something like that? The cabin by the Gau's? she knew chet hubbard "he was a very nice man" - jeweler?

I don't know anything about them personally, but Grandma still is sharp as a tack :)

Sort of all over when I'm there. I am in Madison now finishing up my degree at UW. My family owns KK Fiske and we grow the wheat for Capitol Brewery's Island Wheat Ale. My mom has a home on Rangeline...

My family still farms with their old farmall tractors. I think they are mostly from the 50's. They have an M with a front-end loader, 2 MD's and a H. My uncle sold the "A" I think it was, it had a...

Can never have too many beekeepers - especially from wisconsin :) - welcome!

another vote of confidence for Tim, I've only had good dealings with Honey Run and I would recommend them to anyone.

Filled it out - wish I had better numbers to report - my second worse winter.
