I love your videos with the feral bees and that, but these, I think are my favorites. The ones where you take us all around your very own yard and just talk about what you're doing or have done and hope to do. I'm just livin' the life like my husband and I used to before losing the house with 11 acres. Dang, I miss that. We live in some of those subsidized housing thingys. It's a sad day.
It’s good to see your dad out there with you checking out the bees. I remember when we would take my granddaddy some honey and it had a cone in the jar. He loved it when the jar we took him had the cone in there. That’s a great memory of my granddaddy
"only thing holden them together is termites holding hands." Your a funny dude Rooster. I guess the reason you rarely wear a bee suit is since you have a walrus suit on all the time :)
Loved seeing your papa again! You were my first 'bee guy' to watch during the pandemic. Now I am a beekeeper myself, 1 Horizontal Hive and growing! Thanks to you!
Greetings from Ireland. Wonderful to see your Dad in such good form. Havent watched your vids for a bit and last time he was sick. Great to see him out again
Hi Randy, my bees have gone swarm cell crazy I counted 18 cells on one brood frame, 14 hives split and 3 swarms captured in my bait boxes my apiary just got doubled in just over a weekend man I’m exhausted. Thank you for sharing your videos with us Randy mate.
The only thing holding that together is the termites holding hands....... LMAO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Rooster, I haven't heard that saying since my Pappy was alive in the '90's. You are so funny. 😂😂😂
When I first read the title, "Swarm Catching Machine" I said to myself, att ohh here we go Mr Ed (Jeff Horcoff) must have stopped in lol. Hum just kidding, are y'all in competition again this year? lol. Nice to see your daddy joining in!!! ....
Randy, I was certainly glad to see your dad in this video. He seems to be getting around pretty good even though he’s using 2 canes! Keep him moving as much as you can and maybe he will park one of those canes and go on a few more cutouts with you! You got more bees there than I would know what to do with. Keep the videos coming and we’ll keep watching them!
Perspective in life is everything. To me putting a handful of bees into the cup holder of my car is something I would never even consider doing. But 628DirtRooster, that's just a Monday.
Nice catch Randy. You didn't even have to run out anywhere for them. Also nice to see Dad up and moving around. I know he had a little trouble right as you were leaving for California. God Bless and keep posting videos.
Randy how has your dad been doing? Thank you for all the videos been looking forward to the season so we could see what the bees and you were up to. I’m always looking for more and more vids you are one of the YTs that is very interesting, educational, fun and makes you want to watch something that maybe would not have been of interest before. Thank you so much! God bless your family and take care! 🐝❤️🙏❤️
Love to see what happens behind the scenes so to speak very educational after this we just need a whataburger lol love to watch ur videos I just get in trouble staying up watching them sometimes another lol
I truly enjoy watching your videos. I could watch longer ones. But just to tell you. I am extremely scared of bees. So as I'm watching you and bees fly towards me and anything touch me even the cord to my tablet whatever and I jump like crazy. You probably think it's hilarious. If I were watching me I would think it was hilarious too. I'm glad you got a good sense of humor just thought I'd let you know. Keep up the good work I truly enjoy it
@@628DirtRooster Welcome home. I take it you found people in California got a little confused by your accent? Of course - I don't hear an accent, even though yours is much more pronounced than mine is. Drone comb. LOL
I Love that 🎉 I am getting some Sanford and son frames also 😁 it will cut down on start up cost. And give the new hives a lived in before scent. I did soak them in ACV to kill any mold or pest eggs.
Gotta say, I’m pretty jealous of all the smoker fuel you have all around your feet! Lol not so readily available in my part of ky! And that was a super solid brood pattern in that swarm.
Only thing holding the box together " termites holding hands" now that had me lol. I'm 67 now and miss the days of beekeeping in Hammond, La. and the USDA BEE LAB IN B.R. La.
🤣 Termites holding hands! I'm hesitant to throw away old boxes for that very reason...swarms are highly attracted to the scent left behind by all the previous bees that have resided there. It's especially good to see your Pop up and around - just hope he doesn't over do. Take care.
I found out recently that killer bees are in my area now....LaSalle Parish Louisiana....so I`m not sure if I should get a bee hive now. Almost ready to move and I don`t want to be eaten by bees. Bad news!
Man those boxes look rough! But boy oh boy are you pullin in some handsome looking swarms!!! That brood in the first box was solid!!! Wow!!! Love what you’re doing Sir! Keep up the great content! 🐝😎 P.S. How’s your Papa! Haven’t heard. Hope he’s well and on his way to a healthy recovery Sir. It was good to see him in the video.
Same story different state last week. I've got splits everywhere. Go home exhausted and run the dog but wait...a swarm from out of the apartments showed up with a mated queen..unmarked. Score!
Have had three new colonies added from other places. I mark queens so when an unmarked swarm appears I kind of know its not mine. Empty boxes end up with bees in them. So nice

Looked like they were going to go high in this tree, so i grab my lemon grass oil a put on drop on a lower branch wouldnt you know it worked
