Splitting Bees - Disappointing Results (Could have been worse)

This is the follow up video for early season splits we did a few week back. If you'll remember I tweaked my method a little. Well, we had some crazy weather and early splits with cells can tend to be a little risky. To be honest the results were a little disappointing but could have been much worse. In this video I inspect several colonies to see queen acceptance rate. I also show what happens when a paint pen bleeds while marking a queen (Big. Red got painted). In this video you will see that even though things don't always go as planned there are are still positive takeaways (silver lining). Let me know what you think!

Here we discuss apis mellifera, aka the honeybee. We give people a look into our sideliner beekeeping operation. We share successes and failures. We show how we feed bees and treat bees for pests, such as varroa mites, small hive beetles and others. I am not a treatment free beekeeper though at one time I thought I wanted to be. We also discus things that are important to us that I think apply to beginning beekeepers and more seasoned beekeepers alike. We also show the beekeeping techniques we use to manage the bees and harvest our honey and sell our honey. We talk about beekeeping equipment and tools. At times we also catch swarms of bees and have even done a few cutouts, though I usually leave that for the professionals. This is not Beekeeping 101, though hopefully the information here is useful. As my good friend @Mike Barry says, this is not a necessarily a "how to" channel. It's a "how I do" channel. I hope you will continue to join us as we continue to perform hive inspections, discuss important matters in the beekeeping world, meet other beekeepers, perform splits, grow our operation and just continue down the path of this wonderful beekeeping adventure. Let's GO!!!
