Curious if there are many FReeper beekeepers. If I get a decent response, I would like to start a weekly beekeeping Ping list.
In order to make this list successful, participation on everyone's part is vital.
I’d like to see that, too.
If there are 50 experienced beekeepers, there will be 75 different answers to every beekeeping question.

It does not matter. All views would be welcomed.
Ping me to be added or deleted from the FReeper Beekeeping Ping list.
My brother-in-law was a bee keeper but he turned his honey house into a grow-op. More money in pot than in honey although he did do 18 months.
Put me on the list!
Thanks.

Beekeeping wannabe
I started my journey four years ago but halted my efforts due to my wife’s terminal illness.
This past weekend, I helped a friend who had 65 packages to install and split hives.
Even though my beekeeping future is behind me, I’d like to be included. My father-in-law had 3000 colonies in NY and FL and I learned the trade from him. Long time ago.
My goal is to provide essential knowledge for beginners to experts beekeepers. Tips, suggestions and topics of concern would be the main focus.
I will send out a weekly post, probably on Thursday. If anyone has articles of interest, please post them to our group.

Your knowledge and experience could be a benefit to others.
Yeah, but it would sure create some buzz...
Please add me to the Bee Keeper ping list!
I’m picking up my bees this weekend and that would be great since I’m new at this.
If you would, Please include me as I would love to learn.
Thanks
Put me on the list please.
Waiting on UPS to deliver package this afternoon. Beekeeper since 1974. I am in, and tired of buying new bees just about every yr.
If I Hadn’t Caught It On Camera You Wouldn’t Have Believed Me

Another awesome day in North Alabama today friends. After really rough day yesterday, with tornadoes running all through the state, we are out catching a huge honeybee swarm from a cedar tree.
I can’t believe it myself that this is the second swarm I’ve caught so far and both queens were captured before I ever shook the branch. This is really making swarm catching fun.
I hope you all are enjoying my 2021 Bee season kickoff with these swarm shakes. I sure am. I believe it puts me ahead of my buddy’s Jpthebeeman, 628DirtRooster and Jeff Horchoff. Although I know they will catch up quick, it’s nice to lead the race at some point.
Enjoy everyone and I hope you enjoyed a little fun from Yappybeeman.
I get calls like this all the time, something flying in a small hole and it looks like bees or yellow jacket wasps. sometimes even for a squirrel or a raccoon. I enjoy every new experience when it comes to removing bees from structures. Construction obstacles always seem to challenge me with every job. As a bee remover, I find the good and bad in construction design. Some things look great but make it easy for bees to set up shop and call it home also. Other times, bees move in due to a lack of home maintainace. But no matter the reason, Yappy Beeman is ready to come rescue the honey bees.
This is a YouTube video that was circulating on the news feed of my cell phone just this past week.
