Beekeeping For Beginners pt5If you can keep a garden you can be a beekeeper. One huge benefit of beekeeping is they will help your garden and orchard to thrive and grow. And then of course there's the honey. A nice byproduct. Not to mention the joy of a hobby that the will involve the entire family. If more people would take up the hobby of beekeeping it might help the bees at a time when this critical pollinator is in trouble. If the bees honey bees disappear so does life on this earth as we know it. The health and welfare of our bees is everyone's responsibility.

Michael Bush presents "Lazy Beekeeping" to Indiana Beekeepers at Clifty Falls State ParkVideo number 4 from November 2013. Michael Bush talks about ways to make your beekeeping easier. He practices beekeeping using all 8-frame mediums to make everything interchangeable, and lighter... among other things. Here is the un-edited, full version.
Michael Bush presents "Beekeeping Naturally" and describes the ecology of the hive and all the beneficial organisms within. Adding chemicals or doing anything unnatural knocks the balance of the hive out of harmony. Natural beekeeping, once understood and practiced is more economical on many levels and it is gentler on the bees.

New Beekeeper - What to do nowhttp://www.durhamsbeefarm.com/
What a new beekeeper needs to look for in his (her) hive. Honey (food) & pollen. Late winter or early spring, we need to be sure our bees have enough food (honey) to be sure they don't starve in case of a few days in a row of rain. You can't control the pollen very well but you sure can keep them from starving.
Next, be sure you have a laying Queen and hopefully a good ( very good ) Queen. When I say very good Queen, one that is laying a lot of eggs and a solid pattern, not a lot of missed cells. The Queen is everything. A mediocre Queen doesn't get. This time of year, you should see eggs, larvae & capped brood. As your going through the hive frame by frame, be conscious of any Queen cells. If you see a lot of Queen Cells, they are getting ready to swarm. You don't want your hive to swarm as you stand a good chance of loosing the swarm.
To see step by step how to put brood frames together and inbed the foundation
go to http://youtu.be/_GT71c8QkDY
This is not accurate but it is easy to remember. 8 8 8
They will cap the Queen cell in 8 days
The Queen will immerge in 8 days
& she will start laying in 8 days.
Bad weather can alter the time frame.

Everything you Have Ever Wanted to Know about Honeybees w/ Dr. Reese HalterEarth Dr Reese Halter is award-winning broadcaster and writer, distinguished biologist and sought after public speaker.
Earth Dr Reese Halter's love of Nature began as a child. A springtime tree-planting ritual with his father and brother became his passion. He knew from the time he was a child that he wanted to be an Earth Doctor and has a PhD in eco-stress tree physiology from The University of Melbourne, Australia.
It became clear at a young age to Earth Dr Reese that there was a tremendous lack of basic information on how trees and forests function. He believed that teams of interdisciplinary problem-solving scientists needed to work together to short-circuit ecological disasters, and identify and protect fragile ecosystems.

Marking Queens, Cutting Wings, Fogging HivesThis is not really a how-to video. It's just a mix of some of what we were doing one afternoon coming out of winter. We were mainly checking to see that we had laying queens.
How to find the Queen, Honey Bee QueenHelp Honey bees endangered killing disappearing types of raising facts mail order. How to find the Queen Honey Bee Queen
Even old beekeepers like me wants to see the Queen
1. Catch a drone and familiarize yourself what a drone looks like. Often a new beekeeper will think a drone is the queen
2. If possible, have the sun to your back
3. If possible, position yourself on one side of the hive
4. Reach across & pull up the farthest frame
5. Most likely the queen will not be on the outer frames
6. When you pull the frame up, scan over the entire frame you are facing. If I can convey this correctly, try looking in general. Don't try to look at each specific bee. When you look broadly, if the queen is there, your eyes will guide you to her. Your eyes will guide you to the drones as well so that is why you first studied what a drone looks like. Most likely the queen will be on a frame that has a lot of bees and of course, the more bees hinders your spotting the queen. Don't spend too much time on each frame and after you have scanned over one side of the frame, flip it over and check the other side. After you have looked over the 1st frame, lean it up on the outside of the hive being mindful of the bees
7. Now, you are going to pull up the next frame farthest from you. The reason you are reaching across the hive is because, when you pull up the previous frame and we'll say the queen was on the next frame that was next to the previous frame you pulled out, then it is likely she run around to the other side where it is darker so when you pull up this frame, you will be looking at the side of the frame where she most likely will be. Some queens seem to sense your presence and may run around to the other side. If you now see the queen on the frame you are holding, turn your head for a few seconds then try to find her again. This is an excellent training exercise
8. How I love the queens that just keep on laying while you are watching her. There are bashful queens that will promptly run to the other side and there are " runners ". If you have a runner, she will not be on the frames. She will be on the bottom at the rear and as soon as you see her in one back corner, she will run to the other back corner
9. Learn what eggs look like. If your comb is very dark it will be shiny and you may mistake the sheen for an egg. But once you see eggs, you will know it. So it is easy to learn what a drone look like & it's not that hard to learn what an eggs look like in the bottom of a cell. Then you on your way to finding the queen
10. Now you're familiar with what a drone looks like, after you 1st check each side of the frame for the queen, then look for eggs before going on to the next frame. Once you have confirmed you have eggs, then you know you do have a queen. Laying worker is a different subject
