HEY YOU GUYS!!!!
BABY RUTH!
What a brave young lady. LOL I don't mind the jacket since I don't have to wear it too long any day since I don't have a gazillion hives. Thanks for the video Natalee.
Very well explained , love your video , great job , liked and subscribed đ
Great job Natalie. Seen that cell frame and bars on Google. Glad to see you using them. So important to have lots of royal jelly in those cups. Especially right before they are ready to hatch. Accees to that protein until she chews her way out is a must as well as a good young 4 th day new larvae from egg during your grafting helps for a good queen. Sometimes a queen larvae or young pupae may drop and the nurse bees will elongate the cell. So important when handling the frame, not shaking it, or brushing to hard at the first when inspecting or transferring from your starter to your finisher. And a emergency cell hatched out virgin in your box or a queen bank, which I have seen in the later is disastrous. Made a friend of mine really mad to see his 50 fifty bought queens all dead in their cages. Thanks and this video had the CC and transcript. Appreciate it but never saw one on your wax dipping vid. Checked right after you replied. That's okay. Good luck with your cells as you put them into nucs and the matings after hatching. Hope you got a lot of strong drones and good weather when she flys. Keep up the good work! :) đ
Dang Natalee! What you been packing that smoker with, a sledge hammer?
Great job natalee
thanks
Natalie has had a major growth spurt since the last video of her i watched. Geat job keep up the good work .â€â€â€
Haha thanks!
so jealous of the southern beekeepers making queens already
Sheâs in northern Missouri. Not southern by any means lol. Itâs just been a very early spring here this year.
@@dustinmcintosh6799 I'm in the north woods of Wisconsin most everybody is way south of me Lol
We are swarming in Central Indiana right now.
Hello Hello. I have been in the bee yards every day for a while now but last Monday it was a beautiful day an hot so I thought I will have it made . Wow how I was so wrong my girls really ate my lunch. When I came in for the day I was watching the news an there was a front coming in so that was the reason they were in such a pissed mood . I shouldâve already been doing grafting but I have been so behind but about to see the day light . I have been adding the second an third supers . Thanks
Looks good đ
thank!
im glad we dont have black widows in NY, at least not that ive ever seen. i also try to just wear my jacket and shorts in the summer time, and veil off if i can help it when by bees are being chill.
I tried grafting this past weekend for the very first time and was 0/10. Good news is that I recognize my mistakes and will try to do better next time. Great video btw!
well hey everyone starts somewhere! it also might not always be your grafting there could be something wrong with your cell builder or maybe you chilled the larvae (i did that last week ha) So definitely give it another try
@@BeekeepingWithNatalee thanks. Ya Iâm pretty sure I did decent with the actual grafting but my cell builder population wasnât near enough. I wonât make that mistake twice.
When do you first graft?
Try using a synthetic brush! The bees donât like the animal hair!!! They think itâs a threat!!!
gotcha thanks !
I wish I knew what you know
Trust me I donât know much just guessing over here
What brand and size is that jacket, im looking for one for my daughter. I got one and the arms and everything are way too big while the waist is so tight the zipper pops open
Hey. Yeah this is a gradian suit in size XS www.googleadservices.com/pagead/aclk?sa=L&ai=DChcSEwjjibK039OFAxWANK0GHdBGCn0YABAMGgJwdg&ae=2&gclid=Cj0KCQjw8pKxBhD_ARIsAPrG45nuuqPHZe5ceD1jx7CuTwn0LB7wY2j0yw80sWc4qmjbYBeBzX0pOcAaAvs3EALw_wcB&ohost=www.google.com&cid=CAESVuD2RbCnC_meihx0m-sD9c2IirEtRx-zhrr9WmwonKDbRzK0q2ed954H47XxuKmFJHkKCmkLN4HyNzoIrYdPnqg83uRDyE5aAaoYo-0T9s-Be1Rgw-L6&sig=AOD64_2i0fi7teoC2Z1OWKbsmq-nCsTmKQ&q&adurl&ved=2ahUKEwiw56m039OFAxVzHDQIHW9rCrsQ0Qx6BAgKEAE
Do y'all just make queens strictly for yourself or sell some of them? Just watched Cory in a video in Manitoba and he spoke very highly of you. How's the nectar flow going up there? Everything is just a bit early here, even the tulip poplar is bloomed already.
hey! yeah Cory is a really nice guy. most of these queens will go to splits we make, but we do sell a few. at first everything was crazy early now it seems like everything is about on schedule we will get our black locus here soon in may hopefully!
@@BeekeepingWithNatalee our black locust started blooming a week or so ago, the smaller trees haven't put on much yet but will soon, they are usually late bloomers.
