Title: Ft. Lauderdale shout out.
Post by: Billybee on September 19, 2009, 08:02:35 AM

I have been using the forum and have not done this yet.

My name is Billy and my cousin picked the name billybee while we were setting up the page. I didnt care what the name was. Turns out it's a honey brand.

We had a hive in our house. We heard that bees were in trouble so we had someone help remove it and get them into the box. I videotaped the whole thing and will post when I get around to editing.That particular hive absonded and I know why. I will leave it at that.

I went and removed my 2nd hive from a school doing things my own way. I left with the complete hive queen and all.It was small but it is growing rapidly. Seems like theres no food shortage in Florida. I see the girls bringing in LOADS of pollen all day long. Im not sure if it will slow down in winter here but right now I am guessing the winter is not too big of an issue. I am sure I will be corrected here at beemaster forum.

I am now obsessed with this. I love watching them work. Maybe someday I will even get some honey. I did manage 3 gallons from the bees in the house. It is dark and very good.

Gotta read more bee stuff.

Billy
