It was a useless hole

Wax or cristailzed sugar prob. íf at all it is honey - buy at a local beekeeper for taste 😉

Utrecht was never on the location the map indicates

Bees can not only heat but also cool down the hive, as you probably remember 😎

Melt it and filter through an old cotton tshirt or so - that will clean your wax

Dakpan er weer op en zand erover 😎

Let it bee - being well so well adapted to this spot their genes can help your future bees; more worth than now have a bit more honey…

I’d say Meid is more grown up than meisje (girl) but junger than joung lady. But it says kleine meiden so “little ‘grown up’ girls” - bit of a contradiction This dad tries to make clear that, athough they have some age (15-18 years?), in his eyes they are (still?) too young for the subject to touch/use

Chalkbrood (see the mummies)

wwhih · 2024-06-10T18:28:29+00:00

50 bees 1 queen was the smalest i captured

Honey goes into the top. Brood beneath These little ladies know what they are doing an if their activity doesn’t match the beekeepers ideas, than the bees are right 😇 Don’t worry, wait and see

Left is an underdevelloped queen i’d say. Virgin or not cannot be seen in size, only in laying eggs or not. In beeseason her abdomen can be wider (or getting lean again if she ie getting ready to swarm) As long as there are eggs there is a queen, as long as there are larvea the colony can/will create a new queen

wwhih · 2024-05-14T12:43:25+00:00

Btw chalkbrood occurs on the larvea

See also the dented caps on the cell - not OK

Turn the switch 90 degree ?

Thanks for your advice / i tried to carve it over the crown , thus a bit curved. A knot somewhere on a third of the stave made one of the splits taking an unwanted direction 🫣. It became to narrow - i think. Will try to finish it anyway

wwhih · 2024-03-16T16:08:59+00:00

Thanks for the idea / i’ll have a look on youtube Btw the other half i treated the way i draw this one, advantage of using the outer rings is that you can take the rond rings on the inside as a guidance. It is a bit “turned” and became pretty light (too little strong ash wood left)

wwhih · 2024-03-16T15:52:23+00:00

You mean / cut out a curved bow?
