Bees and Cows

[summers nectar]

in my area of ohio i just put brush against the front to stop skunks. the skunks cant get to the bees and it only takes a day or 2 for the ladies to adjust.  just do it early so they dont get lost trying to find the hive the first day.  no cost and it works.

.22 works fine, just leave them out there as a warning to the other skunks.   :evil:

I've had horses eat the entire hive, frames and all...

Roger Miller I think it was sang, "You can't roller skate in a buffalo herd."
Well I'm telling you you can't pick blackberries (or anything else sweet) in a herd of horses.  Had one eat 5 gallons once while my back was turned.  :-x

Read somewhere that bees killed horses.  Maybe your horses were just getting revenge.

a bee keeping colleague... cows ...had eaten one of his hives , honey , larvae and hive ...

That would make Sweden a land truly flowing with milk AND honey.....  :-D

My horses graze in front of the hives all the time.  Once in a while you see one get stung and run away.  But they will be back there grazing in front of the hive tomorrow with no real problems...

Which one would be easier to get at to work your bees?

For me if the fence would make it easier on me to work bees then that is what I would do.
