Ah no I didn't. I ended up going to bed. Raspberry and Blackberry jam was what I was working on. Spent this morning at Lowes pricing materials to dress up the front porch. I want to close it off with some trellis and plant some flowers in front, put up railing, and a front walk. Working on our...

I have 13 new chicks :) My mom had ordered 2 Homesteader's Delight from McMurray. She wasn't that interested in having more chicks but wanted the goslings. I kept 13 of the 20 chicks and Mom kept the 4 turkeys, ducklings, goslings, and 7 chicks. In my chicks I have 2 Cochins, a black jersey...

Looks like we should have hung around a little longer LOL. We could have helped you with all that demolition and pen building. ;)

Um yea there is a car in there lol on one side ... We did get most of the birds moved out today. One trio of bantams, the goslings, and ducklings are still in there. We also got about half of the fencing done. Hope to finish tomorrow. And my rabbit had her babies.

Denim Deb, my husband is allergic to bees, and not just honey bees, but all manner of bees, especially yellow jackets. We keep an epi-pen on hand. My husband was stung once, and that was last year, and he didn't swell up. We both suit up in a bee suit with a zippered hood. We also wear...

Well, 1 frame of capped honey yielded four 8 oz jars of honey and 2 jars of chunk honey. Yum yum!

Morning, Boogity! We are fairly certain it is the hive that is aggressive. This was a swarm that we captured back in May. We "think" the swarm was from my original hive, but there is a small chance it came from a wild colony of bees in the woods behind our house (there is a colony in a...

Been a long time since I've posted in here about my bees. Quick Summary, we now have 2 hives, with hopes of expanding to 10 hives in a year or two. But we're having bee problems. We checked the hives today. We checked hive 1 first. I harvested one frame of honey from the medium super...
