Beekeeping Updates
by john speckman on 07/14/12
In the last couple of weeks, we have been busy movin bees trying to stay ahead of crop sprayers... still had several yards of bees in the line of fire.. will keep a close look at them, but the populations are down quite a bit, seems the field force may have been killed by the spraying.
Started to remove some of the clover crop, looks like the average this year is going to be way below normal, some locations will not even pull anyhoney... as they say... next year will be better.. Am posting pic's on photo gallery page...enjoy...
Have another 35 nuc's trying to build up... requires weekly feeding just to keep them alive... Will be using some of these for pumpkin pollination later this month.
