🐝 JUST BECAUSE THERE'S HONEY IN THE HIVE DOESN'T MEAN IT'S MINE!

After the summer we've had, I certainly wouldn't complain about a little extra honey. But there's one problem: winter is coming, and these bees need enough food to survive it!

When preparing beehives for winter, it's important to check their honey stores before deciding how much honey, if any, can safely be harvested.

The bees get first dibs. After all, they're the ones that made it. I'm just the guy trying to figure out how much they're willing to share!

At 3 B'ees Flower Farm, keeping healthy colonies comes before collecting honey.

👇 Fellow beekeepers: How do you decide whether your colonies have enough honey stored for winter?

Not every day do you get to see so many things you're passionate about come together in one place!

Hives for Heroes is out at Tractor Supply today, and I couldn't be prouder to see my son there representing the Constable's Office!

As a law enforcement officer for nearly 30 years, a beekeeper, and a member of Hives for Heroes myself, this one means a little more to me than most. I know firsthand the toll public safety can take on a person, and I have a tremendous amount of respect for what Hives for Heroes does for our veterans and first responders.

But the dad in me is probably the proudest of all. Watching my son carry on our family's tradition of service, wearing the badge and supporting a cause that's personally important to me, is something special.

Proud of the organization, proud of the profession, and above all, proud of my son.

If you're out at Tractor Supply, stop by, say hello, and learn a little about Hives for Heroes. It's a great organization doing some much-needed work! 🐝🇺🇸

🚔🐝 **QUEEN BEE IN PROTECTIVE CUSTODY!** 👑

No charges filed. No bail required. Just a temporary detention for her own safety!

While getting my beehives ready for winter, I spotted the queen bee and decided she needed a little protective custody.

Why? Because I was about to start moving frames and rearranging hive boxes, and the last thing I wanted was to accidentally crush her, lose track of her, or spend the next 20 minutes wondering where I last saw her!

Sometimes the safest place for the queen is in a temporary cage while the beekeeper gets everything organized.

No Miranda warning necessary. She's not talking anyway!

Just another day at **3 B'ees Flower Farm!**

When you're rearranging frames or consolidating hive boxes, do you temporarily cage your queen to keep her safe, or do you leave her on the frames and work around her?

🐝 TWO BEEHIVES, ONE ANGRY COLONY, AND A QUEEN IN JAIL! 👑

Getting two beehives ready for winter should have been simple enough. Apparently, the bees didn't get that memo!

One colony decided it wanted to fight me. The other had three stories of real estate with hardly anything in some of the rooms. And somewhere along the way, I ended up putting a queen bee in jail.

Oh, and thanks to the neighbor's dogs barking nonstop, we're doing the commentary from the studio instead of the bee yard.

Just another perfectly normal day at 3 B'ees Flower Farm!

👇 Fellow beekeepers: What's the craziest thing that's happened while preparing your colonies for winter?

11/01/2026

🐝 **DID I JUST LOSE MY QUEEN BEE?!** 👑

I opened the queen cage to release her back into the hive. One small problem… I never actually saw her make it onto the comb!

Did she go back into the hive? Did she fly away? Did she get squished? Or did the aliens abduct her? 👽

After almost finishing this hive inspection, I realized I'd made a mistake that could cost me my queen. Sometimes beekeeping teaches you lessons the hard way!

Three boxes stacked on a beehive doesn't mean you've got three boxes full of bees!

Today at 3 B'ees Flower Farm, we're inspecting our honeybee colonies to find out what's actually going on inside. We're checking bee populations, brood patterns, honey stores, pollen reserves, and where everything is located throughout the hive.

The goal? Consolidate our colonies into manageable space without taking away the resources they need to thrive.

I've got a plan. Unfortunately, after years of beekeeping, I've learned that the bees aren't particularly interested in my plans!

🐝 **NEW VIDEO IS LIVE! WINTER HIVE PREP — AND THE BEES HAVE OTHER PLANS!**

Winter is coming to Southeast Texas, and it's time to get the girls ready!

I headed out to the apiary with a pretty simple plan: inspect both hives, check their food stores, and hopefully reduce them from three deep boxes down to one.

**Apparently, nobody bothered to tell the bees about my plan.**

The Pink Hive woke up and chose violence. The Green Hive was surprisingly cooperative, although apparently the bees had been paying rent on three stories of real estate they weren't even using.

We found brood, honey, pollen, some unexpected drones, and plenty of empty frames.

Oh, and somewhere along the way, I put a queen in protective custody. No charges filed. 👑

By the end of the day, we managed to get the Green Hive down to two deeps. The Pink Hive? Well, we'll have that conversation another day.

**Fellow beekeepers, I've got a question:** Would you push to get these colonies down to a single deep before winter, or leave them a little extra room?

One of the simplest upgrades I’ve made in the bee yard: the Shamrock electric bee smoker.

Instead of constantly pumping traditional bellows to keep smoke moving, I can simply push a button when I need a puff of smoke during a hive inspection.

It’s a small convenience, but when you’re working through multiple hives, it’s pretty nice having one less thing to mess with.

During every hive inspection, I’m looking for possible signs of Varroa mites and mite-related problems.

On the brood frames, I watch for things like abnormal or opened brood cappings, damaged pupae, spotty brood, and adult bees with deformed wings. Deformed wings are strongly associated with Deformed Wing Virus, which Varroa mites can transmit and amplify in honey bee colonies.

These visual clues can tell you something may be wrong, but they aren’t a substitute for actually testing your mite levels. A colony can have Varroa without showing obvious symptoms.

A tight brood pattern is one of the things I like to see during a hive inspection.

On this frame, the capped brood is grouped closely together instead of being scattered all over the comb. That kind of compact pattern can be a good sign that the colony is raising brood efficiently.

While checking the frame, I’m also keeping an eye out for the queen. Even when I’m not specifically trying to catch her, knowing where she is helps prevent accidentally injuring her while handling frames.
