    K. Thanks!?

  8. SurvivalReport says:

    Possible yes but? not the best option. Good chance of getting Africanized bees or worse.

  9. pauluminous says:

    Cool series!? Thanks for posting!
    Would it be likely for local bees to start a colonie if I would just put up a bee hive?

  10. Flyz2Fast says:

    Way cool, Someday I would like to have? my own bee hives!

  11. desertcajun10 says:

    If you have multiple hives, do you? have to seperate them by a certain distance? How much honey does a hive usually provide per year?

  12. manvilletrain says:

    thanks man you’ve helped? me out a lot.

  13. SurvivalReport says:

    Seems like if you? buy the stuff separate without the inner cover it saves some bucks. Also the un assembled bodies save some money. Their is other suppliers also. For a first timer I’d recommend buying put together frames.

    hey I am getting a beginner kit at brushymountain I was? wondering if you know where I can ge ta better deal if any. theirs is a bit expensive thanks.

  15. ustahyou says:

    I live in Kosovo and i? have a very good place here where i live the mountain with sweet chestnut are everywhere and a lot more food for bees but the only prob. i am afraid is that because the school is around 40 feet away , Thank u in responding me thank u all for those videos

  16. manvilletrain says:

    i think if you have them in the backyard that should be? fine the bees wont attack anyone so its not like there dangerous to the school children but idk what kinda neighborhood you live in. Where do you live?

  17. ustahyou says:

    Thank u very much ! but the school is near 50 feet but they are already more than 50 feet from my house is that good? and the street is a little bit near them :( but i like bees what u suggest? me? thank u very much

  18. SurvivalReport says:

    Don’t put them in your home obviously. I would put them at least 50 feet away from your home if possible facing away from the house if possible. Bees don’t eat school children? so it shouldn’t be a problem near the school.

  19. ustahyou says:

    can someone help me? i need one advice how far from human in my home can i place bees? there is a school near my house can that be a problem ??? thanx for helping me?

  20. manvilletrain says:

    thanks.?

  21. SurvivalReport says:

    Wouldn’t hurt to order early.? A lot of places get backed up quick in the spring. Good luck!

  22. manvilletrain says:

    when should I place an order in for a package? a few weeks or months before or would now be? good?

  23. sassylindalou says:

    Great job!! You did a great job explaining how to set up the box, something I’ve been really interested in for quite some time. Thanks for all the info. Keep up? the good work.
