    Really sweet bees and great job handling them. &nbsp;This is a lesson for a lot of beekeepers what continue to rough handle their bees and wonder why they are aggressive. &nbsp;Slow and steady and mindful, just like this video demonstrates, is the name of the game with bees. &nbsp;Great video

    Just ordered my first hives and nucleuses and soaking up as much info as possible. This has been one of the most interesting and easy to watch videos so far. A great explanation of how the hive is structured and what to look for. In particular it was interesting to hear about what might suggest the hive’s about to swarm, what might suggest mite, the differences between capped worker cells and capped drone cells etc. I learnt a lot very quickly. Thanks to you and Lynne.👍
