We will email anyone who needs Jenter instructions, an english PDF of what we include with new Jenter kits we sell. PM if you'd like them.
Howdy neighbor!
Some folks spray the capped brood with a water hose at the right angle and it uncaps and washes the brood out of the cell.
Not the best video, but it might help a little. Hope to re-do this summer, to show all aspects of loading and harvesting.

We use Honey B Healthy for a few other reasons, other than as a feeding stimulant or as a systemic boost.
1.) When mixing syrup in larger quantities, like a 5 gallon bucket or for a top feeder, it...
Just a quick update about our move to the new location in Ravenna, Ohio. We are excited that the new location is much larger than our previous location and we now have over 20,000 sq ft. of...
We actually have ages 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 for the BBWear suits. We've sold a bunch of children's suits in PINK the last few days . . .
Really like Koehnen's 3-hole cages best (their California cage is best for introductions IMO). Also their screens seem to lessen damage on tarsal pads, thereby helping reduce supercedures due to...
We will be at this meeting and any orders placed there over $100 will get FREE shipping, excluding bulk cases and glass containers.
4 oz. Muths are in TODAY!
We will be working through the weekend, so that all parcel orders ship on Monday.
Call, email or message if you are interested in pallet quantities.
There are plenty of choices on suits that range in price, design and craftsmanship.
In addition to our BBWear suits, which are made in the UK of a high performance polyester/cotton blend, we also...
Roberts Bee Company (was H & R, which was York Bee) in Jesup, Georgia had good bees and prices . . . they will ship packages.
I see a Drew Apiaries in Hahira, Georgia has really good prices on...
There is an $8 mail-in rebate per super. Some suppliers don't honor it. We do, and will send the voucher with each order.
Live bees look much better for photo shoots: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOBs8RVZGYQ
I may have them somewhere. We have about 20 of these covers made up to the exact plans that are new old stock if you get desperate for one to copy.
We will see you there! There's plenty of room in our trailer, if anyone needs anything.
Pre-ordering on the 4 oz. Muth now active.
36 ct. cases of 4 oz. Muth for $28.95 with corksl
Of note, it's so interesting to see the pollen change color from week to week as the bees begin working new blooms.
We add the trap after our spring honey flow has gotten a chance to run a good bit. This allows the bees to begin building up honey stores and pollen for bee bread for brood, to make sure we have a...
We don't have mites . . . :lpf: Har-dee-har-har
Well, when the pollen is frozen, it's almost like "space ice-cream" and it can be blown lightly with a small fan, leaving all of the larger pollen...
I will add that pollen is one item you want to build up a supply of BEFORE you have customers, as you will run out (if done on a modest scale, like 1-2 traps). We found it very easy to clean, after...
We collected about 25 lbs of pollen off one hive from our Sundance I bottom trap this summer (we only did one). We sold it in 8 oz. honey weight classics (=4 oz. pollen weight) for $9 each. That's...
My understanding is that at one time there was a "difference in philosophy" between the two organizations. However, a few years back, they started doing "unified" meetings with plans to do so every...
We've been wondering about this too.
One of our favorite trees for bees is the Red Buckeye. They love it. You don't seem them much around here--always the white. RB are also good for Hummingbirds....
