Memorial Day weekend fence line weaning. Very grateful for the cooler weather and the rain to help keep the calves as stress free as possible during a stressful time.

Who would have thought it would be so dry we would have to bale hay at night just to make it easier on us?
We don't mind though, we've got an awesome crop of bull calves peeping over the hill at us while we make their feed for the year.

We did something today we don't do very often, but it was a favor for a friend. Removed a small hive of bees from inside a beautiful old house. Found the gorgeous dark striped queen and settled them into their new house. It's always fascinating to see how they set themselves up without human intervention.

Cut comb (unpainted supers) and SimplKomb (turquoise medium supers) are out for the poplar flow ! Ross rounds will go out next week.
P. S. Please don't mind our weeds 😆 we're just grateful anything is growing around here.

You may have to zoom in really far but these cells are chock full of eggs. This is not to say a new queen practicing can't also fill a cell with eggs but this was definitely a laying worker 😉

Not the greatest video, because as I'm sure most of y'all know it's not easy to use your phone with a sticky glove on, but in case you've never seen it here's a video of a queen laying a few eggs.
On another note: NUCS ARE READY FOR PICKUP.
I have reached out to everyone on our early list, so if you have not responded, PLEASE DO SO. Once everyone has picked theirs up we will open the list again for some later nuc pickups.
Thank you to everyone who reserved a nuc early this year!!

This is the biggest swarm of the year so far 💪🏼. It required 2 hive bodies right off the bat.
Picture of Grace for size reference 😆

With the weather so back and forth, we decided it would be a good time to break out our newest investment at the honey house. Earlier this year we purchased a wax melter from Maxant Honey Processing Equipment, and we absolutely love it.
What would have taken us days to accomplish took us probably a few hours. Our favorite thing about Maxant is that all of their products are made in the U.S. 😉
On a different note, we are toying with the idea of selling some wax. If you are interested please reach out!
