A nice queen was found, the bees […] Enjoy this quick video of assembling frames for honey production. Foundation will be added to the frames just prior to putting them on the hives (to keep the foundation clean until it’s time for the bees to draw comb). Enjoy! Link to my YouTube Channel for you to “like” and Subscribe to my videos: Harmony […] It’s been a while, however I found this gem of a video in the vault – that never got published. A swarm arrived at this young lady’s home the night before. Brianna was excited to learn about the bees, and had never experienced a swarm like this – she insisted on bravely scooping the bees […] |
