I have seen these in a "The Victorian Garden Kitchen Garden" videos. I would like to get some for my hives. Does anybody know where to get them?

.....to harvest honey? I have 3 hives that I have a queen excluder and medium super on top. Is it to late to harvest these? Due to my health, I couldnt get to it any sooner..

We have had a few nights at about 15 degrees. It warms up to about 60-70 degrees in the daytime.Since I had lost 3 hives I wanted to do all I can to help the last two surviving hives. Seems that...

With an entrance feeder. They'll take the quart about every other day.

I lost 3 hives from starvation. I am trying to save the other two. One of the hives is only a single deep. I am worried about them swarming since I started feeding them sugar syrup and Megabee. I...

I want to add a new brood box to the hive I am having to feed. Should I put it on the top of existing brood box or below? The hive is only one brood box.



WA Brown

If you combine some weak hives together, what happens to the queens? Will all the queens survive or do they kill off all but one queen?


WA Brown

Well, It was 30 degrees night before last and it was 14 degrees last night. I will leave the hive boxes out at least tonite. I hope it is cold enough to kill the larva.



WA Brown

It is supposed to get below freezing at night for the next 5 nights. I have put the frames outside to hopefully kill the larva.

I am trying to salvage the foundation wax of the hives that died. There is some wax moth larva in the comb. I have saved to best and have dug out the larva that I could see. Is there a way to kill...

I have 5 hives. 3 of them were from packages recieved in May. The other 2 were from years ago. I went and checked my hives because we were talking about feeding them. The 3 new ones were dead and the...

This sounds like the way to go. Thanks!

WAB

Thanks SC-Bee. I need all the info I can get. Tired of just fumbling thru! Dont mind spending money where its needed but dont want to waste any either.



WA Brown

I have never used either and want a comparison. Is there a difference between MegaBee and Brood-Builder? Or enough of a difference to justify the double price of MegaBee?


WAB

I use entrance feeders for sugar syrup. Would i need to feed this at the same time? Or just the pollen patty?


Ive never fed bees like this before and want to do it right.



WAB

Ive read the articles about feeding megabee and such starting in Febuary to give them a headstart. Around here Febuary is very cold!! I thought that the bees are still "hibernating" during this time....

I have 5 double box hives. I thought about splitting them but then I would not be able to harvest some honey from them, right? I understand that this would probably be the cheapest way. I was wanting...

What is the fastest, cheapest and easiest way to increase your hives?

I dont think the Goldenrod flow is started yet. From what I've been told, it is a big flow. There is also a lot of late soybeans still to bloom. I am counting on this flow to help the hives fill out...

I fed them until they had filled everything with syrup. I would have done this last month but my order was held up untill this week and just got the boxes and frames. The reason I didnt split now is...

I have 5 single deep hives that I started this spring. They are doing great. All the frames are drawn out and full. I added a second deep to them today. I am trying to build them up so I can split...

I have 5 new hives(packages). I will soon add a new deep for brood. Should I put it on top or bottom?



WAB

I agree with JPK1NH. What makes it illegal? And who are the bee cops? Who would "catch you"? Where would a law such as that be?
