Excellent bee give by the way, certainly going to make some of these

I have the same question 😅

The queens chamber is the one all the bees directly get into. The honey chamber is the further chamber. The other bees can get there besides the Queen. The idea is you don't want the queen to lay eggs in the honey chamber

@@FarmUp thanks doctor, that makes sense!

@@FarmUp how do you no the size of the holes in the mesh that the queen cant enter to the honey chamber?

@@omanbody8060 you buy queen excluders made from steel or plastic for a few dollars online.. the mesh he has was the wrong size and will not work at all its way too big she will lay eggs in his honey combs..

Lemon grass, but it does not work how he claim's.. he is lying about buying the bees so he looks like a poor man starting new , but hes actually a rich man who doesnt think you will support him if you know hes rich, so instead of being truthfull he has decided to decieve you... the plant you asked about is called lemon grass in english, you can buy it as an oil its better and you only need one drop of oil to attract bees, but most people who use this method put up around 20 swarm traps to catch their own bees escaping when they decide to swarm and they only catch a few per year surrounding there own bee farm.. you will need to make 20 swarm traps with lemongrass, and find a beekeeper who lets you put up traps near their apiary (bee farm) and dont mind you taking there bees, because most will be mad your stealing there bees before they can catch them back.... if you really want bees do what the fake lying doctor actually did and buy them ... because your only going to catch bees from around a hive that is overcrowded and swarming, and unless you have that, you wont catch bees..

On the one end of the value chain you have your start up inputs which as seen on this video can be DIY or if you have money you can buy a beehive from a supplier other suppliers would be for your suit and equipment beehive tool a simply long aerated bread knife could do a smoker. You then would need an extractor if your using the langstroth beehive but a top bar beehive you simply crush and strain your honey after cutting out the combs you can package them yourself buying jars plastic or glass depend on your market preference benefit of honey as a product is if stores well can stay fresh indefinitely giving you time to market your product and get the right price for it there are barely any month to month inputs beside checking up and maintaining your beehives makes sure there’s enough vegetation and flowers nearby for them to forage on so they don’t have to go too far wasting energy that go forage this will help with productivity

The bees are in. But it takes sometime to collect out the honey. It's a waiting game.

@@FarmUp Hi Dr Daniel.My brother has been in the bee business since 1980 We are from Trinidad. Recently he started complaining about the bee boxes rottening so he is thinking of using pvc board to the bottom

@@FarmUp I will be trying my hands on this in the future

How old are your layers and what breeds are they. Some layer breeds need less protein and others get fat on corn, resulting in poor egg production. If you can answer these questions, maybe I can help answer your questions

@@AIS.FarmResorts there now 10 days got them from ugachick been feeding them on starter pellets since day one

@@lulemark7290 Ok so they're till chicks. For 10 week old chicks, always go for STARTER PELLET (ask the seller). Depending on which country you live, the name might differ but the content/ingredients are often the same or similar. I use Starter Mash (also known as Broiler Starter in Ghana) for my DOC. How many are the chicks and what breed of layers are you raising?

Oh..nice. thanks

There’re many wood treatments (chemicals) you can use. The most important thing is to make sure it soaks the wood well and the let it dry out before using. Bees don’t eat wood, so they will not be repelled by the scent. Also wood termites are unlikely to eat the wood once the bees have colonised the hive. Good luck

Wood was typically treated by linseed oil long ago for its preservation. Its the oil extracted from flax seeds.
