Nice Jim! We pulled a mess of queens and dropped in your cells, plus put some in nucs. As always I have no doubt that they will do excellent. Thanks!

I do dirt work/landscaping. I don't move bees with a lift.

Sorry if I'm off topic, but there was talk a while back about cutting out the barrier bars in a bobcat....bad idea. I tipped a bob the other day, that barrier bar kept my head in one piece. If it...

Bump, Deadline is October 1st!

Used my Mossberg 500 on dove this weekend, I would not buy another shotgun. Beats the Remington 870 any day.

I do. I feel like it's a more rounded feed. Usually I'll add like a bucket of 1to1 to 20 gallons of HFCS or something like that. I really don't keep track I just sugar/water until I think its a good...

How does one feed these? I have 2 ways that we use plastic containers in but these are much smaller???
Mike

I dont get it from the local mill but I do get it from the local small lumber yard. They have very good prices. Beat the big box stores big time! Plus its hardly ever warped. Lowes is really bad...

Just now got back to this thread....what i was getting at is this. Will the paint fill up the cracks between boards and therefore sealing them off or is rabbeting totally necessary to keep water out...

Oops...just now saw this. Passed the test so I will not be down in BCS any time soon. Will look y'all and Tecumseh up next time I am down there.

Emailing you now.

Tom aka Flyman. PM me and I will get you his contact info.

I'd be willing to bet that many of the folks listed above get them from Glenn. I will be getting my cordovan breeder from them in April.
Mike

I get emails like that daily considering my email addresses are online everywhere AND I have a website. Plus I get spammy phone calls. Welcome to the club!

Clear as mud. I have never been to BCS. All i know is that I am staying somewhere near A&M near the highway...and I am taking the test at A&M Riverside.
Mike

I would not graft yet. It could be suicide. Still plenty of cold weather ahead.
Where is Martins...I have to be in Bryan for a test on Thursday.

If I were to make bottom boards out of pallets or even 1x4s from lowes would I need to rabbet the edges or would paint be sufficient?
Mike

Yep. I've been on the phone a lot with him this week...we are kind of like un-official business partners...we by bees and equipment together a lot. We also trade genetics. Great guy...you will get a...

Did you order those from Tom? He said he went to the meeting last night and got a lot of orders.

A guy locally gets close to 200 calls a year for removals and swarms. I know him pretty good...he is a client of mine in my real job. He can beat you!:banana:

Like I said volunteers needed! Since i originally posted this I have been swamped. If you are snowed in and need something to do please PM me. Its a good idea if we can just get it done.
Thanks,...

You might need to have a business (either a sole prop, LLC, or INC) to get Liability Ins, not sure if farm bureau requires this though.
Mike

Thanks David. I think I am pretty much sold out for now. There's other guys though that sell good bees here locally.
