Welcome to another episode of backyard beekeeping topics. This is the audio track from today's YouTube video: https://youtu.be/URxHZ0qSaA8
Question and video time stamps are generously provided by Adam Holmes
1) One of my two nucleus hives is lagging behind the other, should I be concerned about the weaker colony? 3:55
2) I have several leftover frames that had unripe honey in them. Are they safe for bees? Would the residual fermentation ruin my honey crop? 10:16
3) I have a very hot hive, we cant even work it. I tried to find the queen but couldn't. What are your thoughts, is there a cage or pheromone? 12:39
4) Would moving frames from a white hive into one that is treated with Eco Wood cause a big problem for my young colony? 18:12
5) Why do you want your nucleus hive to have a screened bottom board, aren't you against screened bottom boards? 20:20
6) The place I purchased my bees from said that no bees are pure bread anymore, so does it really matter what type I get when ordering? 29:50
