More bee items have been purchased. Working on building boxes, getting stuff ready. (In need of some paint) and working on making this year a very successful bee year!
I have also ordered 3 more packages of bees. All have a different breed of queen. I like to see if one is better than the others. Last year I have great luck with Saskatraz. So i ordered another this year plus Carniolan and Italian.
I’m also working on 3 different lids and 2 different box structures. If the one box does better, then it will be switching most of my bees over to that system. Time will tell.
Till next time.

April 1 2021 a dream came true! My spouse and I purchased 17 acres with the hope of building a home, growing a family and becoming mostly self sufficient.
We are planing around 100 fruit trees, a large garden, 6-20 bee hives (over the years) and eventually all types of livestock.
Please support the channel and stay tuned for more…
Hello, the bee inspection last week is on rumble (link below). It was very successful except I am missing a queen. I think she left for good, which can sadly happen. I’ll check for her again tomorrow, if no luck I I’ll merge what’s left with another hive.
New video tomorrow!
My spouse and I love roller coasters 🎢.
So we took a mini 2 day trip to Kings Island. The night we left, temps hit 28 degrees and we lost 95% of our plants. $250 later they are all replaced and a few more purchased. It was quite heartbreaking 💔 to loose it all. It was an entire day of work.
No the freeze wasn’t on the weather until about 2 days before our trip.
Oh well, that’s life.
Till next time!
