Great presentation, Randy.

Great Presentation ❤

This was really great I have never seen a prestation on anything but mites and treatment that Randy has done so this was just great Thank you for sharing it.

Really interesting and useful presentation. Thank you for sharing.

This is one of Randy's best lectures, and I've seen them all. He has a great article in the American Bee Journal on pro-biotics that is industry shattering. It should be up on his website (scientificbeekeeping.com) soon. Basically there's NO advantage to feeding pro-biotics to colonies. Hope your season is great my friends!

Greetings from Mana Malita Philippines

Excellent lecture thank you.

500 colony's at 80years of ago, he must have been very fit.

We all do open feeding in Canada and we don’t get any robbing but you feed but only bee keepers that are isolated

"Someone who manages hundreds of colonies, how many hives would they put in the same place? Is 60 good?"

Music WAY too loud.

I would breath on my bees too to get them home 😂

I learned how to be a beekeeper off the Internet. I learned off RUclips for free but nothing beats practical experiences and a good mentor.

The best video about the hive biology I've ever seen. Thanks 🙏. Will be sharing and watching again.

We’re in at in Canada the flow starts in may and it don’t stop until end of August

What exactly qualifies you to lecture on anything bee related? According to your opening, you managed to kill 150 hives (or 60% of your apiary). Is this video supposed to be a "what not to do"?

May is our first pollen 😅and is over mid July until August fall flowers

Is there a free drawing with sizes of the Langston hive pieces?

Best (of an incredibly good lineup) speaker presentation I have seen yet from this year’s recordings!!! Thank you for making this resource available to all.

Dumm

Awesome! You are realy smart teacher... great respect from Russia!

There is no doubt Randy Oliver knows a lot about bees but to Quote Dr Thomas Seeley "If we had done nothing the Bees would have sorted out the problem of Varrora mite themselves in 4 years". The problem is commercial Beekeepers like Randy would rather rely on toxic chemicals indefinably rather that take the hit for 4 year while the Bees adapt. Dr Thomas Seeley is the Horace White Professor in Biology in the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior at Cornell University. He is the author of several books on honeybee behavior, including Honeybee Democracy and The Wisdom of the Hive He was the recipient of the Humboldt Prize in Biology in 2001. One of the foremost experts on Bees and Varrora mite alive today.

In other words when « mad cow » desease appeared a few years ago, they should not have been destroyed but treated…???? Hummm why was this not told to the beef producers? They could have kept all of their beautiful animals and would have been good beef producers if I understand you correctly? 🤷‍♀️

Outstanding video. Randy knows bees. Thanks for sharing.

This music runs me into alcoholism

Charts and BS

This is where he shines . . .

Wow. Great video 😊 Thanks

Randy is great. I think this was the best presentation he's has ever done. Thank you for sharing this on RUclips. I live in Virginia

I live in North Western Minnesota and our winters are NOT getting warmer. Are some winters warmer than others? YES These are just cycles we go through. Some years we get tons of snow other not so much. This is NOT "global warming" or "climate change" as they call it. This is just a natural cycle. If we want to claim "climate change" we could say we are in a global cooling as our summers here have been cooler lately, but again this is just a natural cycle. Our typical winters get as cold as -40 F. with lots of snow. Our summers can get up around 100 and plenty of rain. These tempt don't always last the entire season though.

Who are the authors cited at 1:03:17?

New Zealand ,very interesting thank you

New Zealand every interesting information, on mating Nucs etc thank you

It was a great vid! The curmudgeons at the end wanting to debate with him I found hilarious.

My problem with not feeding bees because it's considered unnatural is that there's nothing natural about keeping bees in a box for your benefit. I think it's your responsibility to feed them back something when you're taking, manipulating, and moving their resources throughout the year. However I do think you should do what you can to limit that supplementation in terms of leaving them as much of their natural resources as possible. Which is going to vary depending on the beekeepers goals.

The first question was about the tapering of the frames. The side legs of the frames are wide shouldered and narrower at the bottom. There are two practical reasons for this design. First, the wide top shoulder exceeds the width of the top bar. This give you automatic spacing as you push the frames tightly together, eliminating the need for a spacer tool. Adding this shoulder to the width of the frame legs caused a problem of waste wood when cutting the pieces out. The narrow end is the original width of the frame leg. Many pieces are cut out of a single board and the older models had a straight line cut between them. Now with the shouldered design, they wanted to still be able to make a single cut between them, so they invert every other leg and cut a single curvy line. The next time you assemble your frames, turn one leg upside down against another and see how they fit together like jigsaw puzzle pieces. Most of the wood doesn't need to be there, but for speedy manufacturing purposes, they cut them out this way. So that makes the second reason for their funny shape is speed in cutting the pieces out and decreasing wood scraps.

That last part about not checking every frame definitely struck a nerve for me, got me thinking that maybe I should shorten my inspections. I suppose I've never really gotten out of the beginner inspector phase, after 3 years.

Somebody needs to tell him dado blades are outlawed in Europe…

2:02 Im a beekeeper wondering how he makes honey due to the fact that bees are the honey makers.

What does he mean a super and a section?

If you compare sugar syrup with honey it’s different. If you compare honey made from sugar syrup with regular honey they have the same acidity levels. You need to compare nectar with sugar syrup and they are the same. Then compare regular honey with sugar syrup which has been capped they are the same or close. Stop using that propaganda

How do you prevent breeding with weaker bees that can't fight varroa mites?

Thank you very nice do it

Майкл Палмер молодец. Спасибо ему.

Excellent talk i watched this several times thanks for posting.

He has no idea what he's talking about^^

What a tremendous amount of practical knowledge Mr. Palmer has!

The South will rise again 😁

Goat. Intelligent and efficient

Every hive is a different book . Thats what makes them so amazingly interesting 😮😂
