Yes it has occured in Oxford , Alabama. The new Queen decided to take up with a queenless hive with less space and more Bees. Thanks for all the help BeeMaster.. I guess if I had been a first year bee Keeper than you would have fed me some BS and moved on... this site is a waste of time. Tell you what take some chemicals and treat your bees ..then tell everyone you have to treat them.. Such great advice from a bunch of cattle getting on the truck. Remember the Bees have been here longer than you. : :mrgreen:

WHAT is your problem, you post at 9:40 pm and you want answers by 2:30 in the the morning (my time) and it's 5 more hrs. before I'm reading it.Someone will answer your question if they ever heard of it but sorry I have not.

After that post, he can work his own bees. He doesn't need any help from an idjit like me.

wow he had only been registered for a few minutes when he posted his first post. One heck of a way to introduce himself. I believe i would move this post to the greetings section and let people form there own opinion of this guy. Guess he has never heard the ole saying the first impression is usually the lasting impression. I got to go off to vaction from the field. The cattle truck im on is about to pullout and i will loose my wireless connection talk to you all when i get back to the field  :-D
never take the top off a hive on a day that you wouldn't want the roof taken off your house

he didn't read much either.  if he had, he'd know that many of us don't treat our bees.  he's also know that for one question there are usually 10 opinions given.  more like a herd of cats than a herd of cattle   :-D

either a troll or a drunk....since we are into forming uninformed opinions  :evil:

Since our site is such a waste of time - I'll make it so we don't waste his time any longer. This is obviously a troll and is going away now. I'll keep is posts intact though, incase anyone wants to read the hoopla :)
