Great video. If you’re hear just to learn, do yourself a favor and just skip to 2:55 mark where he gets to the point.

I was angry until the end when he said unless it's your honey, yeeaah😊 I'm feeding them their 🍯

Solid information my friend. In the beginning of the menu may have been dramatic but the risk is real. Thanks for sharing.

Hello, good to know. I don't know how many people know not to feed their bees honey. The only reason why I know not to is by watching your video and others that have bees. Thank you for sharing, God bless, stay safe and have a wonderful and blessed Merry Christmas.

I love your intro. Hilarious. We do a double deep for the winter. Hardest thing for us is staying out of our hives to see if their still alive. Never thought about buying honey to feed the bees because sugar is so much cheaper. Good video.

Yes I do that. I feed them the same honey I pulled off them.

Thanks for clarification on this issue.

Big mistake to give outside harvest honey from other beekeepers to your bees & also big mistake to give process sugar to your bees the natural way is to leave at least 10 kg honey for winter back or one super hive back to the bees and one for u!!! Bio natural way...

use your own honey.... at least

Store honey can also have lots of corn syrup in them. Especially stuff from china that you can buy for cheap at Wal-Mart. That causes gut diseases. So good video. Just adding info.

So I'm a very small beekeeper (and new) - 3 hives. I don't sell honey - I'm doing it just for the bees. My 2nd year - I split my hive twice this year so went from 1 to 3 this year - sticking at 3. I'm going to be taking off my honey supers in the coming week - my plan is to bottle up honey and mark what hive it came from - and use that in feeders for them to build up the reserves in their brood boxes (I do 3 med boxes in winter - NW Ohio). I did syrup last year to my only hive but then again I didn't take a drop of honey from them all year. I have more honey that I know what to do with - everyone will be getting honey for Christmas from what we already have and have probably 24-32 frames I'll need to harvest in the coming weeks - so figured store in buckets and use that as their feed. so even if one hive has issues - not even contaminating within my apiary. That sound like an ok plan? cause to me makes sense to give the girls back what they made - and actually cheaper for me that I don't have to buy tons of sugar.

I’m not a beekeeper 🐝 but this bee bumped into me as I was on the pavement and I gave it honey 🍯 I’m sorry bee’s 🐝 🙏

So was that a no? Very educational man.

Dude made ne go YES SIR 😂

Question. I don’t have any bees yet but I’m going to learn everything I can first. Plus it’s cold where I’m at right now and I’m thinking it’s probably better to start in the spring. Anyways my question is “is the not a way you can kill the bacteria”?

New subscriber here from Facebook! Great vid! Going to watch more

Sooo. you can feed back your own honey to your bees, including the bees own pollen?

What if you don't harvest honey will it help them grow?

Thank you for the info I’m getting bees in the spring. So any info is helpful

You shouldn’t have felt the need to explain yourself to the person who said you were a bad beekeeper. Also hello from the piedmont!

Agree

I gave rice 🍚 to my bees 🐝

😂🤣...no...got it!

If you watching this video, it means you're concern regarding whether to feed your bees honey or not! Well, I am concerned and that's why am here. Well, in my country we have main three seasons, October "Jujube season", Spring "Acacia tortilis" and summer summer flowers, so, I don't like harvesting the summer season, thus, I was thinking of harvest it and keep it for the best to give it back to them when there is no nectar flow..even though, lots of my friends on WhatsApp bee's groups who keeps saying to me Don't feed the bees pure honey, honestly am not convinced by this statements, Now i guess I've found the answer. Thanks a lot.

I wish I watched this before I left a bottle of Stater Bros organic honey out for the local bees.. maybe 500 of them swarming it now and 10-20% of them running around the ground aimlessly...

What about store bought unfiltered and raw honey?

Buying honry from the grocery store to feed the bees is the worst thing you can feed them. Only about 10% of the honey mass marketed in the US is pure honey. Most the the stuff you buy commercially is cut with things like sugar syrup corn syrup or HFC. HFC by the way is one thing you should NEVER feed your bees. Many countries have even outlawed it for human food.

Why is it people seem to think acting like a ma-rooon will get more views ... demo ranch wrecked KZfaq video for everyone. I'm not 12 I don't need the theatrics..
