Beekeeping: A Feeder / Donor Hive.
I'm showing the advantages of owning a feeder hive. Taking a frame of brood from a large colony of bees can be quite daunting. It's so much easier to remove a frame of bees from a dedicated feeder hive. A feeder hive is also useful for beginner beekeepers to become familiar with finding the queen & learning how to read the brood.

Juicing My Home-Grown Sugar Cane By Hand.
Просмотров 164 тыс.7 лет назад
We bought a squid press/ sugar cane press to try first. It took 2 hours to get the juice out of one stalk. We decided it was sold as a sugar cane press under false pretenses. We requested a refund & we offered to send it back. They gave us US$65 of the the original US$105 back as a refund if we kept the press, which we accepted. We bought another hand press which did the job beautifully, howeve...

Beekeeping: Bees Washboarding & Fanning During Hot Weather.

The bees in my observation hive are flat out wash boarding & fanning during hot weather. They're doing a lot wash boarding inside the hive as well as the outside. You can see how beautifully the bees position themselves so as to direct the air where the hive as a whole wants it to go.
Beekeeping: Flow Hive Inspection - Sharon & Ian at Eumundi, Australia.

Sharon & Ian asked me to check on their flow hive 8 months after picking the bees up in Feb. '16. They are thrilled with how their flow hive is progressing. It was mid-spring, so we did a pre-emptive swarm control strategy.

Even though you haven’t posted a video on a few years, they continue to be very helpful. All the best 💕

    The way to get just the pupae without coccons ist to freez the comb and than crushing it by rubbing it between your hands. Use isolated rubber gloves for example. Wax and coccons chips away but the solid frozen pupae stay intakt. Than you can sift out the pupae. You have to worke quick though or in a cold environment. I gave some deep fried and slightly salted to several persons - all were skeptical at the beginning but all confessed that they taste really good. I think the taste is like a mix of roasted peanuts and walnuts. You can use the drone combs which you are sometimes discarding anyway as a method to keep the varroa mites in check - this way you also get the biggest larvae/pupae - if you don't go after queen cells will say 😉.

    The currawongs are down again from the Snowy Mountains which are about an hour or so south of here. They arrived here just before sunset, flying to and calling from the trees they frequent in our driveway and in our western windbreak. As Slim Dusty sang it, when they come down from the mountains the switch to cold weather is about a week away. I used to doubt their timing but they are spot on every year with this migration so I associate hearing their calls with heralding the imminent end of indian summer days and the beginning of equinoxial gales or foggy crisp autumn mornings.

    We've just had one on the balcony. We live near Gold Coast. I've only been here a year and a half and only lived in Australia 7 years so a bit unfamiliar with a lot of the bird calls. Ver rarely seen currawongs near the house. It came to see why the butcherbirds, doves and magpie larks were on there (Food). I tried to toss it a little meat but the food went through the balcony wires so a butcherbird dived after the food and startled the currawong which flew away. I then heard an unfamiliar bird call and came to this video to find out of it was the currawong and sure enough it's the same call. :)

    Thank you so much for making this video. I wish I had seen it before I ordered the squid press for sugar cane juicing only to find it really doesn't work for that purpose. I have since been blending the cleaned sections in my vitamix w additional water then squeezing out the juice with a nut milk bag or t-shirt and this works much better than the squid press.
