Might be something to consider for next year....![]()
I just started this year. Shook two packages into hives two weeks ago and the hives seem to be really taking off. Looking forward to seeing what they can do once the populations start building up.
On another note- how do the local keepers up here guard against the awful winter and the accompanying wind? We get a lot of wind on our lot and I think it could really negatively affect them in the winter time when it's bitter cold.
Man you people are serious about keeping those insects around? I personally wouldn't do it. I understand the need for them but damn, 180K bees? You've got to be freaking kidding me. Why would you keep them - especially in number like that which can easily kill you?
Honey is cheap cheap at the store.... and you don;t have to risk your life to get it.

Bees are easy to keep. Many people around you keep them and you probably would never guess who because bees want to be left alone to do thier their thing.
Is that 50 per class or entire course?
