I'm explaining why I'm NOT doing a Demaree this year in "Side by Side Hive, the Two Queen Hive: Short". As my daily life has changed and lifting heavy Deep beehive boxes is becoming too difficult. This is a beekeeping tip that produces a LOT of honey with some, but not as much lifting. I explain a Side by Side hive or a Two Queen Hive that produces more honey than the 2 hives alone.

In this video, a beekeeper shares insights into his tallest bee hive this season (to-date), which originated from two resource hives that weren't strong enough to survive Winter. He details the process of combining these honeybees in October to ensure their survival and improve the bee hive's strength. This method is a crucial aspect of successful beekeeping and homesteading practices.

The SIMPLEST Way to Prevent Bees from Swarming - In this video, a beekeeper demonstrates a crucial technique to prevent a bee swarm by giving honeybees more space. By adding a drawn comb to the edge of the beehive's brood nest, the queen bee and the colony feel less overcrowded. This method is key for effective beekeeping and maintaining healthy honey bee colonies.
