You have to feed bees sugar if you are going to rob their honey.

Actually - we don’t. We have fed sugar/pollen patties/honey back if the spring begins in a non-productive pattern. Of course we feed grass bales if the livestock needs it as well.

Management of producing livestock/critters only needs to be as complicated as you make it. Then again we aren’t looking to be “profitable” - just self-sustaining.

Watch out, someone will probably call you a liberal for saying that.
