Our bees from one colony are coming out the entrance one after the other weak and falling on the ground dieing in about 30 min. Anyone know what could be wrong ? The other colonies are fine,they are all together in the same yard.
Acts2:37: Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
38: Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
39: For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
40: And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation

Nosema ceranae maybe.   If they get too weak and can not fly back home.  Maybe.

Insecticide?  Starvation?  All of these can cause that.  Starvation is what it sounds like the most...

Starvation is the first thing I came up with,so we started feeding them the same time I posted this morning. We will go in the hive tomarrow to see if they have store. Will let y'all know what we find.

Anyone else have any thoughts ?

If they are starving they will be low or out of stores, which means that the hive itself will be light weight. In the morning go out and lift the hive to see how much it weighs.
those hot bees will have you steppin and a fetchin like your heads on fire and your keister is a catchin!!!

Bees will be bees and do as they please!

That looked just like one of my bee yards after we pulled honey this year. In my case it was robbing.

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

  that vid is a short version of a more detail vid-the keeper is in san mateo and dose not treat for mites and has this form of die off every year--the keeper sweeps up the dead bees daliy-until no more bees are left -this is in direct relation to viruses carried by mites-
I had a felling that there mite be something going on when jole posted about old bees being kicked out of the hive--
this keeper still dose not treat and experiences huge loses every year-RDY-B
heres the long version

We are treatment free and no problem with anything. All of our hives were being robbed 2-3 weeks ago.There were dead bees from them fighting,we closed down the entrance and stopped that. I think one hive got badly robbed and is now starving,will see tomarrow. Going to do our winter check.
