No they weren't registered with the state and the apiary inspection program I think is not mandatory.

I'm with tommyt on that. Canning jars work great!

The problem with that is I'd be in trouble with the law if I stole them back. I still haven't located them yet, but I 've got some ideas.

I came up with a value of what I lost but I wanted to get other beeks opinions on the value so I can get it as close as possible. I had 20 double deep Beemax hives with the whole hive consisting of...

As of now we are talking to the crime victims unit of the local sheriffs department, so an investigation is in progress. Thanks for everyones support, I appreciate it.

Got that right!

It all started when the economy tanked and I saw the writing on the wall that the construction business would soon be in dire straits. So, my wife and I contacted Wells Fargo ( after they turned my...

It turns out we have the DA and Sheriffs department doing a criminal investigation as we speak. Thanks everyone for the kind words and concern.

A realtor from Prudential that was handeling the illegal eviction of me and my family, lied to a beekeeper and told him or her to come and take anything they wanted in my apiary because I abandoned...

I have one and it's a great extractor. I would only buy it if your thinking of expanding your apiary to more than a few hives. You can probably get yourself a used 3 frame extractor for a decent...

As my father used to say : " You can slide a lot farther on bullsh.t, than you can on ground glass. " :D

I'd worry more about what's in it, than where to get it. To many impurities could lead to digestive problems.

Bummer. Next time you talk to the guy, ask him where in his yard he got stung. Then ask if he could show you because there may be a yellow jacket hole some where in the yard and you'd be happy to...

You guys can talk about CCD, AFB, all day long, but the answer to the question about sterilizing the extractor is SIMPLE. YES, sterilize the extractor before and after you use it, in case the guy...

When dealing with Dadant on a large order, I was surprised to learn that they aren't computerized. I thought that's pretty amazing considering the times. Dadant came through in the end though.

I haven't had a real good experience with B Weaver either as set down in an older post. Same similar thing happened regarding defective queens. Half of them were superceded and B Weaver wasn't very...

I could be wrong, but the reason I vent the feeder is, I figure there's enough moisture caused by the syrup in the first place. It helps to minimize the problem of any additional moisture in the hive.

There was a thread similar to this by "oakive" under the name " Dead". You can look to see some more discussion on hive top feeders and what I wrote in that thread I'd say the same : I can see the...

Benadryl extra strength itch stopping cream works great applied soon after being stung. It also seems to help with the swelling and it's easy to carry around in your pocket or glove compartment.:D

Sounds sexual to me .:rolleyes:;);)

I can see the problem right away. There's way to much space between the bottom of the feeder and the tops of the frames. I use a Bee Max hive feeder that sits right on top of the frames, allowing...

Red clover would be all right as long as you have Carniolans. They work it just fine because they have longer tongues.:D
