Looking for the queen bee about 5 days after installing a 3 pound bee package. Also checking for workers building comb. Notice the ball of bees that falls off the inter cover when I lift it.

The Bee Package came from C&H Apiaries in Ocilla, GA Their email is hesterterry@windstream.net

  • @audayhussain2 I just mix half and half water and sugar, heat it and yurn it till disolved.I have never heard of adding Vit-C

  • The Queen was already marked when we got her. When you order your bee package, request that they mark your queen. Some will do it no charge and some will charge one more dollar.

  • whats that silver thing

  • @lilspark3000

    Do you mean the smoker? If so it helps mask the scent of the bees alerting the other bees so they stay calm

  • lol the queen got a pink spot? ^^

  • all you need is 1 queen bee for the whole component all ten frames or more queens

  • lo que se usa en apicultura es un polivitaminico y por alguna razón en particular, arranque de la primavera, terminando el otoño, para incentivar postura... Si no estás seguro de lo que haces, usa productos comerciales probados y sigue las instrucciones o vas a matar a tus abejas. vitamina c efervescente es tirar dinero y maltratar abejas...

  • @GeorgiaWineMaker Doesn't it also confuse the bees?

  • you know harvest honey and sell just like my sister boyfriend do

  • I am curious also, with the queen, how did you find her, and how did you get the purple marker on her? Very carefully I'm sure. :)

  • Everyone should take this hobby up, if possible. It will keep the honeybees around, and consequently, keep us fed and prevent our food supply from dwindling for lack of bees to pollinate everything. :) Long live the bees! hehe
