Strange looking propolis
« on: March 27, 2012, 09:36:12 am »
Hello all!

Work is killing all of my spare time.  Barely have time to throw a new box on the hives.  One of my baby hives went queenless and the other had about 8 queen cells!  go figure.  Have transfered a few frames so have my fingers crossed.  Wish me luck.

My friend who has a hive sent me this picture of grainy looking propolis.  Any thoughts as to what makes it look like this?  Is it something to worry about?

Thanks in advance.  Hope you are all well and enjoying the pollen, I mean spring!

love ziffa,

I evidently don't know how to post a picture  :?  but here's a link.

Couldn't get the link to work Liz.

Does the propolis look like Jesus? If so you might make some $ on Ebay :-D

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."
