Are you serious? Using a machete to remove a bee hive? 

Wow! What a gorgeous hive! I was drooling over that beautiful, (messy) dripping honey! You and Charlie make a great team! Excellent job spotting the queen, always impressed that you find her so easily! Yes, by the Grace of God! Thanks!

That feels like an early summer removal with all that honey.

Now, that was an absolute professional hive removal ! 🎉 Had to have been so exhausting !!! Thanks for taking the time to take us along.

Looks like you found a new tool to use for your removals. That machete worked great because those were some of the largest cells I’ve ever seen you remove. Great job guys!

Just posted a video of my first swarm as a 1st year beekeeper. On my mom's birthday :) thank you Jesus!

Now that was ALOT of not just bee's but also comb! Those girls are going to be a great addition to the Abbey. The comb seemed to be thicker with this hive storing alot of honey. Hope you and Charlie had a great lunch together. God Bless you both!!

I always enjoy your videos… Today there was no mention of lunch for Charlie, and when he said goodbye as “Good-Time Charlie” I imagined him saying “Lunch-Time Charlie”. LOL!

"Machete Wrangles" What a mess! But you are giving those bees a great home.

Would've been cool to see an up close view of the drone bees. I mean, they look derpy as all heck but outside of the beekeeping hobby, you don't ever really see them, especially alive. Those cells were three c's worth of thicc. Gorgeous looking too. Looks like you've caught another wonderful addition to your honey farm.

Y'all may be exhausted and think have some dis-spirited thoughts, but from my clean and cozy spot in the bleachers all I could think throughout that capture was "put a gold star on that hive!" The size/thickness of that comb. The look of that queen. The population. The temperament (that queen walked into the cage!). The amount of honey stores still there at winter's end. That is a hive you want to take splits off of and expand that bloodline.

You need some scaffolding so you can get your equipment closer to you on these ceiling hives! Would save time and trips up and down the ladder. You could have good footing, have your table, coolers, vacuum and hive box closer to you too!!!

Charlie, I didn't know you served in Viet Nam. A pilot no less. I grew up 3 miles from Wright- Patterson Air Force Base. During the Viet Nam war, The B-52s went over our house so low, you thought the wheels would touch the roof!. My father was a Navy pilot in WW2 and Korea. He served in the Pacific flying PBY, PB4Y, and P2V aircraft. Thank you for your service, Charlie. God Bless.

Haven't seen a Mr. Ed bee video in yonks, good to see you again Jeff. Fine work again, thanks for filming for us.

WOW!! That is the thickest, heaviest, comb I’ve ever seen!!! Amazing! Looks like a healthy, thriving hive.

You can hang your suit out on a line and the bees will come clean it up to an extent! LOL

Awesome work Mr. Ed and Good Time Charlie. Hoping y'all survived the wrath of those storms and tornadoes. Was hoping and praying you were spared of all that destruction. God Bless!

WOW, I did not think it was ever going to stop. Great job guys and thanks for sharing. Have a nice safe day and God bless you guys for all you do!!!

I’m halfway through and I can feel GTC getting hungry. 🤣

Good Morning Mr.Ed, I'm impressed with every job you do. This one must have been a long and exhausting one! Well done!! You are are always informative and entertaining to watch. I've seen a lot of comb but the cells were deep ! That is a winner hive ! Keep that one Mr.Ed.. ya'll have a good weekend ya hear!!!

Incredible Queen find ! It’s such a great feeling when out of nowhere they show up …… but not always !! God is great !

I love you two guys and may God be with you both always. Thanks Matt

7 hours of working to get heavy comb down from overhead… that is tough on the arms!! Nice job guys. Darcy and I were amazed at the size of that comb.

Wow, that is a slamming hive Jeff! Great removal as usual, had fun as always. Say hi to Charlie :D

😮 wow. Those girls have been busy.

I'm praying for your safety, as you're up and down on that ladder! May God keep you safe from injury!

Just yesterday someone was 'telling me' how the brood is always near the entrance... not so! Very nice video... I was not expecting the machete twist!

It got into the 90's we had yesterday. First time I did not need a sweater. You are going to have enough honey from that one hive to make a hundred bottles for the Abbey. God bless you and Charlie and the bees.

Every time I watch one of your videos like this I have to laugh at beekeepers who say horizontal hives don't work. According to them bees only work in vertical spaces. Great video, sw always. Charlie does great video work. Really impressive hive. To clean you suit take it to a car wash and clip it on the floor mat hooks. Power wash it there. This keeps the mess out of your washing machine. Happy Wife, Happy Life. God Bless you Jeff. Look forward to seeing you again in Louisville.

You guys taught me a new way to use the rubber bands! That is a great way, I've been having to thread the comb through the gap made by the frames when the rubber band is on both sides. Also, like the use of the portable folding table and cooler idea. Thank you.

Wow, what a great hive. I've never seen such deep cells and so many drones. Mr. Ed, you and Charlie worked very hard, and i hope your lunch was amazing after such hard work. Working overhead like that, i imagine you were in some pain too. Thanks for sharing these amazing bee rescues/wrangling. Sending positive vibes and blessings from northern Indiana & happy spring! 🐝

I just love you and Charlie!! what a GREAT team you two are ❤❤❤

Charlie thank you for your service my brother. I was a truck driver it used to be 64 Charlie but now it's 88 mike. Love watching y'all work the bees. My grandpa used to have a bee hive I loved that honey. He had a milk cow too and my grandma used to make butter. They went so good together with toast or a biscuit. I miss my grandparents so bad. I practically grew up with them. I didn't get to see all of what my grandpa did to take care of his bees but I wanted to learn I was just too young. That was back in the 70s. Thanks for your hard work in making these videos. God bless you both

Those combs looked like they could go on forever! 😮

Your videos always makes my day. Gods Peace Brothers.

Love it! And you and Good Time Charlie as well! God Bless!

Theres a new tool in the tool box. Who knew a machete was a bee wrangling tool?🐝❤

I have to agree. The overhead removals are by far the least favorite, and I press forward knowing the end of its coming. Great removal.

WOW What a Giant Hive. Out of all the hives that I have seen you or any one that has removed. This is NUMBER 1 Of them all. I love this video the most. & to see that Queen just walk in to that trap like that, WOW. It don't get any easier then that. GOD BLESSED THIS ONE.

Not your physically largest hive, but it was definitely packed. Convenient frame size comb, you didn't have to piece it together for a full frame. I laughed at the bee pom pom on your hood near the end. Thanks to you and Charlie for another enjoyable video!

A whopper of a hive and yes Charlie, deep cells indeed. Great viewing again. Such a big beautiful Queen too. Many thanks for sharing today’s exploits. Blessings.😊

I know that was a lot of work. You guys make it look fun and always interesting. Charlie, it's never enough to say this but Thank you so much for your service . You make a great team. 😊

Hello Mr Ed how are you my friend this is a huge coloney of bees good job Mr Ed I like your work today I catch two sarm in my garden I use your technic God bless you Mr Ed

Lemme guess, Charlie said two hours! That was An amazing removal!

You need a fold up platform to set your cooler on so you don’t have to go up and down the ladder so much.😂

Another Wow, Wow, Wow! My wife walked into the room just as you said ''There she is Charlie'' and she automatically said ''Thank you Jesus!'' I laughed so hard. Thanks again boys. Also, I love to see the ''Wreck it Ralph'' rubber band method.

Hey guys! Massive colony and great video as usual. Just saw bees in my fourth swarm trap yesterday. Sent you pics. God bless!

Another great video Guy's. Sticky job though.🐝🐝🐝

Very nice! Lots of bees. Pretty new wax. Take care and God bless.

Nothing like a honey shower 😊

Great video, that suit looks to see a pressure washer/ washing machine. God Bless. Godspeed Brother. Nice catch btw.

That capped honey looked like buttered bread when you pulled it down.

Funny thing about this video, maybe I’m just strange but I got smell-o-vision of the bee odors. 😂

Thanks Jeff and Charlie

That was one heck of a hive. Those girls won't know what hit them.

There is a tool for every Job, you just have to find it. This was another great video. God bless all of you and the bees. Spring is here, 35f with a skiff of snow

That machete seems to work really well.

Wow massive cutout, with so much comb to spare.

So there are two queens, you can get two hives out of all those bees!!!

What a beautiful colony. They sure did make deep cells. I was kind of surprised that you were able to frame it up and still have bee space in the box.

That’s a job! Where is wreck-It Ralph when you need him or Harry’s helping hands is always available lol.

That honey and honey comb looks so delicious 😋 😋

Amazing depth on those cells. Congrats to you and Charlie for saving them to the abbey. The Lord really blessed you that day!

Hope you show the box again in a month or so, curious how they fare in their new home :)

Beautiful honey comb. You guys worked hard.

That's a lot of up and down that ladder!

Wow what a hive and as Charley said deep cone

Flight suit Vietnam? Wow. Thank you for your service.

Now that was a beauty of a hive. Good job fellas!

OMG! Datsa humunkulus hive! 😱😁🤪🤣👍👍🇺🇸

Awesome God in His provision. You all do a great job wrangaling bees...😊

Wow! You're now officially a Bee-Wrangling Ninja! Guessing that machete is the newest addition to your arsenal of tools! Can't wait to see what y'all get into next! Much love as always! ❤️

One word. Epic! I sure hope you got Charlie a nice lunch 😆

Wow what a save. Beautiful colony and comb. And all that honey, I know you and that floor were a sticky mess when you were done. Way to go 👍😁🐝💜

Good morning from Texas and Brushpopper Bee Wrangling .

Good morning Charlie, Mr. Ed. Mug up from central NH, where we are under flood watch through tonight. I think it's the remainder of the system that dump that 10" on you. That was some deep drawn comb! Thanks for sharing! Always a pleasure, take care, Brice

Those are some thick cells dripping honey..

Got the auto like, love your channel/fellows anyway. Don't let anybody tell you, you don't know have to have fun!

Such nice framable comb!

So cool! Like I keep saying watching your videos I wanna do a removable like this some day (even better would to do 3, one with you, one with Dirt Rooster, and one with Mike Barry). I know it’s a lot of work but as I’ve always felt doing anything hard when it involves animal husbandry it’s a REWARDING feeling to a job well done. 🥰

I can't believe how much honey. Thar was thick!

Phewie! Now THAT was a labor of love. Lotta bees in that hive! Well done boys.

all i can say is wow god bless u all

would love to hear about your service Charlie.

Hard work , thank you guys.

that was awesome! the machete was so effective. Can you show us how you will rebuild the hive when you go back to the abbey? How do you clean up? do you collect all the excess wax combs? please show us!

They look so calm. Have seen feistier bees

What a great cutout Lots of bees. Well now I might have to buy a serrated Machete LOL. How many deeps did you end up putting them in. I am going tomorrow to smoke some out of a tree the hive just moved in about 2 weeks ago. The home owner was lucky enough to see them moving in. Thanks again for another great vid.

By the ton or by the mile, you two get on with it. Hello from one Vam vet to the other! Jesus weekend to you both and God Bless Yall!

Hey Mr. Ed you can try a mini Machete also. I have one in my small knife and sword collection.😊😊

Maan, that honey looks gooood!!!

Epic scale!

I would stop to put those first few bars of honey straight into a jar with a lid.

I would love to have some of that combed honey.

Wow, It was massive

Next week i contact the local beekeeper to coordinate a visit. I dont have jeans though so hoping heavy cotton pants with legging is enough thickness.

I am impressed with how you guys get the bees out. Good job. That was quite a colony. How many hive boxes did they end up filling?

That’s a big hive good luck you two god Bess

Buy a Rain Jacket and Panting. Add a thin , thin Fleace inner lining to the jacket , just wear your pants under the panting , modify sleeves to keep out Bees with velcro at the neck to accept the netted Head covering . Boom , now you can be hosed down after bathing in Honey . Too you can add an opening at the back to accept and hold a hose which is connected to a fan to keep air flowing and you cooler on hotter , humd days . Hoping that can be a thing .

That’s a lot of honey. Mr. Ed might get stuck to something.

That hive was HUGE!
