HAPPY NEW YEARS | How To Make Money Beekeeping In 2023 | PACKAGES OF BEES FOR SALE

 


Happy 2023 from David and Sheri Burns at Long Lane Honey Bee Farms, www.honeybeesonline.com


We did it!! We reached 100,000 Subscribers in 2022. Thank you so much for helping us reach this milestone on our beekeeping YouTube Channel.


Now that it is 2023 let's start the new beekeeping year the right way by order your bees before they are sold out:



Packages Of Bees Available Now Click Here Now


5 Frame Nucs Available Now Click Here Now


Our packages are "pick up only" at our bee farm in central Illinois on April 22. Why is it better to pick up bees rather than having them shipped? If bees are shipped through traditional delivery services they can be mishandled or kept in hot trucks for days. It is very common for shipped bees to arrive to a beekeeper with most of the bees dead on the bottom of the package. It's risky. Why not order your bees today and pick up your precious cargo here at our honey bee farm where we keep your bees healthy.


Our packages of bees are available now. They sell out very fast. We also have 50 (limited) Nucs available for sale and many have been sold already.


TURN YOUR LOVE OF BEES INTO A LUCRATIVE BUSINESS

We all love our hobbies and sometimes it's an added bonus when our hobby can make us money. In today's video I'll share how you can make some extra cash in beekeeping. Take a look at the video below:



SEE YOU AT HIVE LIFE



Sheri and I will be at Hive Life in Tennessee Jan 5-7 and we are pumped about seeing beekeepers from all over the world. Kaymon Reynolds is doing it right. He's put together a conference brining in YouTube content creators for beekeeping under one roof. He knows that when people start beekeeping they start with YouTube.


Experience two days with 22 sessions teaching time-tested methods and new techniques from the industry’s best! There is something for everyone, from entry-level to professional.


Experience over 1 MILLION dollars in Extractors, Woodenware, Honeybee Nutrition, Live Demos, the latest inventions, the best deals in North America, and much more at Hive Life’s Trade Show!


Experience the conference with Beekeeping Stars and over 2000 like-minded beekeepers from around the globe! 2,000 Beekeepers from all around the world are coming together and Sheri and I will have a great time meeting all of you.

3 Ways To Help Your Bees Survive Winter

 



COME ON! Mites have got to be the most horrible thing to ever happen to your precious bees!


Three ways you can help your bees survive winter are: 1) Control Mites, 2) Feed Your Bees and 3) Raise thousands of bees of winter physiology in September and October. I explain these in my Online Ultimate Beekeeping Course.


Many beekeepers have high hopes and dreams of producing treatment free bees, I did too at one time. It is very admirable, but it is a very large undertaking and although many have been working on this idea for many years, we still have to control mites every way we can.


I've been working hard the last few weeks making videos helping beekeepers learn the art of testing for mites and choosing the best IPM approach to controlling mites. In August and September mites will double in population.


Until we have a proven line of queens that are 100% mite resistant, we must be responsible beekeepers and continue to manage our mite levels to save our honey bees. Please watch my most recent videos on how to test for mites and how to treat for mites. Check these videos out below:

Winter-Bee-Kinds On Sale Now For Shipping In December

 

Here's how it works. Those who order first will be first to receive their order when we start shipping in December. You MUST order early. We are only making a limited number for this season.


Our customers are so pleased and can't believe they come out of winter with huge, healthy colonies. We make these for 10 and 8 frame hives. They come with a refill recipe. 




FALL FEEDING


The only way your bees will survive the winter is by having enough bees of winter physiology, mostly mite free and have plenty of food. Summer bees only live 40 days. However, bees of winter physiology live 4-6 months. Bees that you raise in the fall will be bees you will see next spring. But how do you raise bees of winter physiology and when? You must feed your bees in the fall so that the queen can lay an abundance of brood in September and October. When the queen lays an abundance of eggs in September and October, those bees will emerge in November and will support the hive through into April. To stimulate brood rearing now you must feed your bees with our Burns Bees Feeding System. 



Our feeding board, shown to the left, allows you to feed from the top where the cluster is located on cooler fall evenings. And it provides screened holes to place your 1:1 sugar water with our protein powder.
