    This was a tremendous conversation! So informative! I love the joy and humor with which the three of you share with one another. The deep respect you hold each other in is apparent. You're making a lot of us better beekeepers because of what you do.

    I think this is 3 times listening to this whole thing while driving and still getting tons on new info. It covers a lot of ground and speaks to everyday situations and what is so refreshing and freeing for a newish beek is that no one knows everything, at least none of the 4 that were on this gem. Other vlogs seem to project that sometimes. 😊😊😊

    I feel like my acceptance has improved installing mated queens by leaving the split/nuc in the same yard as parent colony, the forage bees return back to parent colony.

    Long time ago before I even thought about bees a feller had chicken and bees even he was having an issue with his I gave him terramycin crumbles made for chickens and pigs and he made patties out of it and he said it fix the problem

  • @abstract1dea
    @abstract1dea Před rokem +1

    Kamon, I wonder, when you are marking the queens, possibly track the size of the queens and maybe get feedback from your clients as to the queen performance so you could quantify the observations you are having.
    I think it would be interesting to see how much a difference size actually makes, if any.
    It would also good to see what size makes in reference to disease resistance.

  • @carrollrhodes4050
    @carrollrhodes4050 Před rokem

    Cell size perception often is determined by the foundation. The plastic cells are the best because you can see the royal jelly in relation to the extended cell. Queen cells are constructed many different ways. Molded wax cells, homemade cells off dowel rods, limb sections, and unused and used cells off frames. No one mentioned anything about trimming cells. This goes to the heart of Mr. Binnie's expression "dropping off the royal jelly". He was talking about the elongation of a cell as the larvae is found at the tip of a long cell and had failed to return to the royal jelly to complete feeding. Usually when a cell is exceptionally long, the graft was made with a copious food supply; not just a syrup container, but also a highly desirable flow. What happens is the cell feeders will actually feed the larvae. The feeder will actually come to the larvae and posit nectar and pre-jelly directly to the grub. The larvae will come to the edge of the cell to be fed. The cell builders will extend the cell beyond the larvae's head. The process is repeated to completion of a cell that is instantly noticeably longer. Mishandled cells will also produce aggrandized cells. This is knocking larvae off the jelly by dropping a frame.
    What I wanted to get to was Mr. Stevens' directed statement that he opens every one of his cells. Again Mr. Bennie's use of "slipped larvae" is the harbinger expression of the activity that may cause consternation next time he is opening his cell. When Mr. Stevens opens the cell he is inviting a series of events that may cause skewed emergence of the queen. The very sensitive queen at the stage I believe he is opening the appendages are still hardening. She is still in position to start the cut of open the tip of the cell. She, having been unmolested, will continue to orientate herself by the tip of her abdomen and turn to cut through the webbing of the chrysalis. A new queen dislodged from a natural position and turning and twisting will cause a crooked neck. Cells for queens is an indication of a necessity for natural division. An opened qc and disturbed content may cause a longer emergence process. I wish everyone luck who opens their cells. Doctor Hardy Osteen told me when I was a boy, "You just killed that queen!" Everyone knows what I did.

    paul kelly never had a video on the QMP another random youtuber was doing it on the queen nucs. Paul kelly goes to an island so he is nit there very long. He has a good video for dealing with equipment cleaning for nosema cernae instead of excerbating the disease with fumaglin.

  • @edcook6146
    @edcook6146 Před rokem

    Different Pollins have different nutritional values. Is there a pollen or a mixture of pollens that could be used in queen rearing for optimum nutrition. Why do queen right finishers produce better queens than starter colonies. Is there a phenotype to shoot for?

    A little constructive critiquing , as the so called moderator. If you have a Bob,Ian , and Cory, less interrupting and allowing them to just have conversations would be a good way to handle the post. Always remember, the brightest isn’t always the center of attention. You are great for the bee industry but there really shouldn’t be ego in good leadership. We don’t always need to be the center of attention. I’m sure you will grow in your moderating and interviewing skills.
