I got a swarm around here that's seriously off its chops. They're not a very happy, they're not a happy crew at all. So, their leader must be a little bit of shitty ass so we, I think we'll give them a new queen. Then I've got a little, little newt box out the front. They don't have another thing and I don't know whether they have a treat, whether there's even got a queen but we'll give them one as well. Anyway, go around here and see what trouble we can get into. So, these are the little ladies that we got off that tree not so long ago. But they're a little bit angry now that they've settled down. So, we're going to see if we can find the bobbosh lady. We're going to turn her into something cool. Now, just remember though, if you're making your own queens, they're not quite as cool as the ones that you import from a queen breed because when they do the queen breeding, they actually get and flood the breeding site with their own drones as well. So, you get all the genetics of the bees that you want. Whereas this way around, she's going to fly out and mate with, I don't know, whichever drones are here. And so, you won't get a completely pure strain of the bees that we've got. But you'll at least get a shitload better queen than what this one is in here. We'll get the lid off. So, yeah, crazy down and eight. These girls are seriously bonkers. Now, if you wanted to get excited, you could put your bee box somewhere else and then the bees coming back would land in a different box. But, anyway, we might do that if it turns into that sort of situation. What are we doing, chicks? Hey, what are we doing? Getting bloody excited, that's more reckon. Oh, shit. She's a bloody good liar, though. Ew. Maybe we won't kill her. Look at that look. That haven't been in that long. Look at her cranky busy there, yeah. But there are no... I don't know if it's not quite as angry as they were the other day when I was here. Oh, fuck, now that, I don't know. I want to most of it. So, I must have been a pretty... Maybe I'll go and find my little queen-captain pot. We might popper in a pot and then we'll see what other trouble we can get into. Of course, you're actually doing a pretty good job in here for a farrow bee. What's the bad I find her before I go and get the bloody thing? I'm not careful, so I should go and do that when I think of a chin-eye. I don't know. Maybe I should just knock me such a big squint. Because you can see the genetics isn't real flash. But heck, she's got a nice pattern. So, I don't know. These are the horrible decisions you have to make as a beekeeper. But I would like them to calm down a little bit. Where are we? Where would you be? Come out, come out, we're a viewer. Oh, can I leave Josh? Well, I can't find the boss, Lady. That's a little bit psycho here in a minute. So, what we might do, we might put it back together. Just let them all settle back down. Go and have them play with the little new box we're going to do with. And then we'll come back here in a minute. You know, there's were ashes as well, we're trying to re-queen them. Because look at this, at least they're not trying to bite me today. What? Where? You. You rabbit. Ah, you know. Anyway, we might just let this lock settle down. And we're going to have a play with a bit smaller new box. That's in the shade of two. Let's get bloody otter sit here in the sun. At least this one's got a little bit of shade. Oh. Oh, it's not a warm up in this suit. Goodness me. I forgot how hot it is doing this job in the summer. See what's going on in here, see if anybody's laying any eggs. See if we can find anybody who's laying eggs. After that last epic fail. Oh puppy, stop it. Run rabbit, run rabbit, run, run. Here comes the pushpy man with his smoking gun. No, that doesn't make any sense. I reckon there's a queen in here somewhere, because there's a little larvae there and two eggs. Oh. Oh, here we go. Hide and seek you again. These chicks aren't quite as crazy as they're that other lot. They're that again, I guess there's not as many of them. You love it when you want to find the loom and gloom and queen when you've got you lot here watching me. Never just comes together with too much ease, does it? You're too bloody simple otherwise. Dogs are eating bees, the other day that was not a good idea. Oh, there's a little wildy idea. He's gonna be a slow job next week trying to find 40 of the queens, isn't it? The time I get through that line I'll be good at it. No, it's not too bloody, eh? Too bloody hard. She doesn't like us, she keeps going backwards. She knows she's in trouble. Fuck, where are you? Ha ha. You're getting up in there? There you are. I reckon while Bill was right, you're gonna be a beekeeper. I think you need to know how to drink beer or shit loads of whiskey. Anyway, anyway, I digress. We've got our majesty hidden in here, which is all good. And so we're in the next plan as we take one of our queen cells. We've just got the more desirable bloodline in. Pick a little bit of their old frame that came with them so they don't get too excited. They're organised and we're just gonna cut a bit of stuff out of here so they've got something to mold to. Just make a bit of a thing here to push it into. You don't want to waste too much of this brood that we've got in here. These gas tanks seem too angry but we'll find out in a minute. And just be really careful you don't crush anybody. That's not what you want to do. And you just get push your little queen cell into like this. Now these girls will keep them warm obviously and ripen her up to the end. Just try and make sure it all sticks together. That's the last thing you need. It's probably a new queen cell to end up on the bottom of the pot. But that seems all a bit pointless. And so we've got a bit extra. We're gonna do a couple. We'll put that one right there. Like those actually babies there. We'll go in here. We might as well put a couple in here since we're into it. I'll put this little double header in there. And the ladies can figure out who's gonna win. Here we go. Here we go. Okay that's looking pretty good. We might just hold it up and see if they fall off. Which would be great if they don't. And they don't. So that's good. I'll pop that back in there. I'll push it all back together like it was. And then pop that little bit of storage back in there. And we'll go right there. Yeah. Go. There we go. So anyway there's a bit of bush beam and re-queening. Now like I said earlier obviously these aren't gonna be quite as pure of queens as you're gonna buy from a queen breeder. But the cool thing is you've got some genetics from your own environment. And you had a bit of fun. And you've hopefully improved your temperament of the girls that you're trying to work with. And her majesty that's you know I guess she's on a journey that a girlfriend's don't want to go with her on. Anyway we're not gonna show you that bit.
