Commercial Beekeeper and Queen Breeder, Jose Uribe, heads to three different mating nuc yards located in Butte County, California on a 111 degree day. In the first nuc yard he was scheduled to catch queens because we had 300 cells coming off. Unfortunately due to the intense heat wave we were experiencing, Jose found the majority of the bees had either absconded or cooked to death.
This is one of the many struggles we face as a Northern California queen breeder. Sometimes its ants, sometimes it bears, skunks, or raccoons... right now its heat. All of the queens that were found alive but appeared stressed had to be eliminated in order to not compromise the quality of our product.
If you are new to our channel, welcome! We are a small family owned and operated commercial apiary located in Northern California. We've been commercial beekeeping for the past 12 years, but branched off and opened Uribe Honey Bees in January of 2019, and launched our KZfaq channel in April of 2020. We specialize in queen breeding, pollination services, hive management and brokering.
Thank you for watching and supporting us! We love you guys!
