I am sure there is way more to it than that

And they will still drown cause the surface of the tube. That it is why has to be wire mesh.

You should have compared a Polished ABS to the Acrylic. Why a textured ABS be compared to Acrylic?

Where to buy this?

I be'a'thing, this dude needs to take a course , in " Barn Yard Timber Wood Workmanship." He sure does need some barn yard a'lernin, I think. I use'im by the numbers, and have done so for many years, and they workl just fine. They catch mites, and beetles. I did take courses in barn yard work'man'shnip or sometning.

This is how i did it too!!!! First time I saw this method

Hi, Zack I was watching a video that you commented on regarding how to determine if honey is pure, what is ur view on this? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d6-Cgth-yb2yqI0.html

Are you still in buisness making drain boxes? I'd like another one of yours for another reef tank i am assembling!

where are you based of?

I got one and it works fine.

Hi Zak Where are based of? How much you take for 1kg of honey?

I don't see any water in the "sandy rock plate" yet there is a lot of bees in it.

Were did you get the little black box from ?

Were did you get this overflow box

How long does it take to dry and cure before being fish safe?

Nice fountain!

OH BY THE WAY JUST TO UPDATE YOU . LOOKING AT SOME INFORMATION ON BIRD SAFE WOOD FOR PARROTS AND OAK IS POISONOUS FOR THEM. Just thought I would let you know so it turns out that over thinking is something you should do.

The only problem you might have is the bark it's a good idea to take it off then disinfect the wood.

where can I buy one of these?

Thanks I'm going into high schoolnext year and I'm very interested in bees for a while now I have a few question Is it hard to manage bees? How much is the average pay?

Do you ship to puerto rico?

Zak, are you making these yourself? Are you using a router? If so, can you provide some direction (type of router and bit, etc). I've seen Joey Mullen make an overflow box but he used a table saw and it seemed very labor intensive. I am looking to make my own overflow box this summer. It needs to be 2400 GHP. Not sure how to calculate that as well.

congratulations

nice looking feeder your bees still aggressive

no empty space! anything over 3/8 inch will have comb built in it. your 2 missing frames is why they built it there

I didn't know the difference until now. Thanks

should not drill without water!

I use 3 cups soy flower, 1.5 cups brewers yeast 2 tea spoons sea salt, 6 table spoons dry milk and 1/2 cup sugar. If you can not find brewers yeast order on line or whole food sells it and call it. Nutritional yeast.

How do you get the bulk heads in the internal box?

Well when the hive gets full of honey, they get aggressive,, If they where killer bees u would know it. They all would be on ya

thats just a branch

dear friend, can you tell me the measurement of this weir if I'm going to do it myself? whats is the teeth high and width, width between each tooth? and how many GPH each tooth is capable of? thanks

It was about 10 minutes and they were all over it. I had just started bee keeping about 45 days previously and in the summer here in Texas it's pretty much dry with out much for them to forage on. We were in a drought with out significant rainfall from the end of June until November. We didn't have a fall nectar flow. I fed fed fed and was glad cause they ended up with 2 boxes of drawn comb and 1 box with 70pounds of honey. Warm winter caused them to fly a lot and be active, so in my thoughts they ate more then 70% of the stores.

how quickly did the bees start eating the flour

just watched the video that amazing so just plain white flour . could I use whole wheat flour

what kind of flour did u use

I have a hive that is continually being robbed and I am having to close the hive up a bit to try to break the robbing cycle. is there a way to safely put a water source inside the hive?

Hi please recommend a honey that's pure I'm in tampa florida I'm surrounded by city I don't know or go to farms I do have local produce markets they not big on selling honey I might find 2 -4 different jars of honey they sell which are no brand to never heard of brands. any way if you know of honey I can purchase that you would recommend pkease help I use honey for everything but I need pure I don't like honey from the grocery stores it's nothing but suger and claims it's honey and do you recommend honey sold on amazon I'm really needing your recommendations.Thank you !

lotsa bees there

((-:

routing the end pieces makes for nice looking frames

That's a neat set up and a neat stack of parts. That'll make you some real good frames.

OMG bee soup 00:47 NO WONDER THERE TEE OFF

what no smoke? smoke will drive the bees down into the box, with out hurting them

Good video and good work getting the errant comb into a frame. Brand new comb is real fragile and hard to re-frame. Wow - your "gentle" hive is a camera attacker. Its hard to deal with that much attacking. I can only imagine how tough the "bad" one is. Once I tried spraying sugar water on my mean hive. It helped only a little. Someone once mentioned putting some sort of a berry in the smoker - sumac? I'm not sure. Sumac might be poison. But some sort of berry - or seeds - in smoke is supposed to sedate the bees. I wish I could remember. I'll google for that. I went into my far west hive today wanting to do a mite count. I got everything prepared to do a powdered sugar shake. An important part of that process is to make sure the queen isn't put in the shake. I couldn't find the queen even though I looked on every frame 3 times. So I didn't shake them. What I did was to go get a sheet of foam board and put it on top of my SHB trap to catch fallen mites. I coated the board with P. Jelly before inserting it into the hive. I'll let the board sit for at least 24 hours before counting mites. I might have to wait longer because rain is forecast for tomorrow. If some of the brood you put in the NUC is real young (just changed from egg to larvae) AND if the NUC is queen less they might make a queen. If that's what you're wanting to do it'll help to make sure thay have frames with lots of pollen and honey and a bunch of nurse bees. But you already know that.

Its good they're moving a long with the comb building. That's very satisfying to see. I wonder what could prevent them sticking the top of the frame to the bottom of the inner cover. I've had that on some hives. Ooohh I watched again. They built comb where there's no frame. I made a thing with plywood that takes up some space when I'm wanting to make a 5 frame hive using an 8 frame box. It will likely prevent them doing that until you can get a few more frames to go in there. I see the ledge around your inner cover is real thin - maybe 1/8 inch. Does that work good on all your hives? I make mine about a bee space thick. Maybe I should try making them thinner?

Good job on the bee watering video. Its Saturday morning Feb 13 and I just had my first cup of French Press coffee. Its g-o-o-d - - - - - My first brew was a little weak so I'll add a few more grounds to the next pot or let it brew a little longer. Thank you so much for the thought and the nice gift. The French Press coffee maker is a beautiful piece of glassware and steel. I'll use it a lot and try different flavors and blends. My wife likes the coffee made by the French Press method, too - just the way it was made, but hers brewed a few more minutes than mine did. I guess I was a litle impatient and poured mine after 4 minutes total brew time
