Now that spring is starting to show I wanted to introduce some new animals to the homestead and start growing it! Besides egg laying chickens as you saw in my previous vlogs (which yes caught on FIRE!) I decided to get bees!
The video before this goes over the hives I created for them to get them ready for their new homes on the homestead.
Yes! The bees have plenty to feed off of lol The yard is filled with dandelions and wild flowers, the fruit trees are blooming and I check them daily including providing sugar water if they need it while getting established.
I know for sure next time I go out with the bees I’ll be wearing a suit or veil as they were rather docile coming out of their boxes after a long trip. You could see by the end of the video from being in the warm sun and new home they really began to wake up.
The bees have been doing well since they were added to the homestead. In fact I inspected a number of them and so far everything is looking good. I’ll include some pictures of the bees below.
I wanted to also thank everyone here on Hive for all of their support and helping in this amazing homesteading journey I’m on in becoming self-sufficient. You all have been amazing and I appreciate the support. THANK YOU!!!
