Pulling honey supers off and getting them ready for winter. This is one of three stacks. All our frames will be cleaned up, scraping all the propolis and extra wax off. Then we will add some paramoth crystals and seal them up. Wax moths love old bee frames and they will destroy frames if left out in the open. So be sure to add bee friendly moth crystals to your old boxes. Not all moth crystals are safe to use on bees. Paramoth is the brand we use. You can put it on a paper plate between boxes or pour some in old panty hose and lay it on top of your boxes. Be sure to add a lid to the top box to help contain the fumes.

One of our old girls laid an egg without a shell. This happens sometimes when they start getting older. It can also be a sign of low calcium in their diet. I know that’s not the case with our girls because we add calcium to their feed. This was an egg from a 6 year old hen.

Spur removal day. This boy Has been avoiding me for months. Today this little chubby lady was faster than him. 🤣🤣 Rooster spurs are easy to remove and pretty much painless. All you need is a good pair of pliers or channel locks. Grasp the spur at the base and turn lightly forward and backward. They will break free and slide off.

The life of a beekeeper. ❤️. Picked up the last of my equipment for 2024. Seventy five new boxes and 750 new wooden frames. Now comes the fun part of assembling boxes and splitting hives.

Brand new beesuit all white and clean to start off the year. If your looking for a good brand Pro vent from Mann lake is excellent. It’s vented which is great in the summer time.

Today I did a deep dive in a couple hives and the bees are already ahead of schedule. With all the warm weather it has pushed the bees into brood mode. We did lose 3 hives over winter starting the season out with 17. All 17 will be split in about a month so we should go into the year with around 34-36 hives. I seen tons of eggs, pollen and capped baby bees all a great sign that Swarm season is around the corner.
