had this idea randomly thinking about my future beehives i wanted to build and why no one seemed to build them like that. im so glad im not the only one to think of it, i would have liked to see a brood frame though, just to see how they shape with it and how much honey reserve they have on that frame (looking to keep in colder areas) but im loving what im seeing in the idea so far. great video

Thanks for your input. I’ll take some fill of the brood comb next time I’m in the hive. You can see lots of videos on KZread that can show you some brood. Look up cathedral hive or Backyard Hives

Great idea, following the shape of the honeycombs !!

What is surprising is the bees don't attach the comb to the sides of the lower main hive structure....The bees build the comb only on the removable upper 3 sides of the removable frame even though the main hive structure is only a few millimeters away from the outer edge of the comb. As if the bees know the comb is going to be removed from the hive and are cooperating with the purpose of the hive structure for comb harvesting.

How do you keep the queen separated from the honeycomb? So that she make brood comb in the same comb as honey is stored?

@praiseworthy

Жыл бұрын

Because the Brood is like Rigby ball it is usually in the middle and the side you find honey most of the time. Then the queen lays egg and stay in the middle, not interested on the side.

This gave me the solution for my hive build.

Gday! Would love to hear your thoughts on brood comb and why it has toxins in it - I'm new to bee stuff and interested after you mentioned this!

Very cool and interesting this type of box. I would like to ask some questions: How much honey does such a hive produce per harvest? Do you put wax on for the bees to start pulling correctly? Here in Brazil, the most popular option for hives is the langstroth box and the placement of honeycomb wax.

@beekeepingnaturally4580

Жыл бұрын

Hi, thanks for your comments and questions. It's really impossible for me to tell you how much honey any hive can give you, It all depends on the colony, the amount of nectar available and many other factors but because the comb is crushed and strained after harvesting, I do get less honey than I would normally get from a Langstroth hive that I spin the honey from the combs. No I dont use wax foundation, the bees build natural comb. Yes, the most popular hive here in Australia is also the Langstroth hive.

G'day Adrian, just subscribed (can't believe I didn't do it years ago). These cathedral hives are fantastic, I hadn't seen or heard of one before. Guess what I am building next. 🙂 Hope you are well, we are kicking along here in Tassie mate. Cheers, Jason

With the heavy metals the cocoons from the baby bees and everything in that old wax, why do you want to produce honey in those? Why do you just cycle them out as brood frames and replace with new top bars. Maybe remove them early spring late winter once they are empty? Seems like brand new wax with brand new honey is the golden ticket set up. Cool hives all around though thank you for sharing. From a beekeeper in Lexington Kentucky, I’m enjoying your videos.

@beekeepingnaturally4580

I start to cycle out old brood comb about 4 years after I introduce a swarm and over a couple of seasons I manage to get it all out. usually the combs still have small amounts of brood and honey at the top so pulling them out completely doesnt feel right for me, moving them across slowly does the job just fine.
