This is the second step to install a bee package in your new hive. There are two videos in this post, each will show half of the process.
In this video, I drop the bees into their new home. There are approximately 4,000 bees in this package--and it always is a bit exciting to get them into their new home.
Before this step, I already installed the queen cage. Right before I start the drop, you can see her little cage inside the hive box.
Here is my beekeeping book on Amazon: The Beekeeper's Guide: Fun and Simple Steps to Apiary Success and Self Sufficiency

Beekeeping can be a very profitable business. but when you know what you are doing.
It is a fact that the world is in need of honey bees since they help in the pollinating of plants and the honey produced is consumed by humans in it’s raw form and can be processed to make natural sweeteners....Thanks for this great and useful lesson

Yes it can. I don't really make any money doing it--mostly I just give the honey to family and friends. But I love taking care of the bees and I feel like I am helping nature just a bit by keeping my hives.

I do not understand how to take care of bees, and frankly I was afraid of bees. because ever I experienced a bleak incident for me while cleaning my garden suddenly a bunch of bees attacked my body, so almost all my body bumps due to bee sting, especially part of my face. I accidentally destroyed the nest, I do not see the beehive because it is hidden in the leaves of the trees. I'm afraid of bees 😊

This is something I am so interested in doing, just need to get started, I live across the road from a forest and thought maybe I could set it up in the forest? Do you think that is a good idea.
Want to do it mainly to help sustain the bee population, I know it would be small, but I guess every little helps, and of course the honey would be "Shweet" pun intended.
thanks for posting

Wow, @bigpanda that's was so cool! I didn't realize beekeepers have to shake out the bees like that from their crate. Recently I hit up a local farmer's market for some Grade B Brazilian spicewood honey and pine tree honey. Quick question, how do beekeepers know that the bees are only going to stick to one certain plant?

this is one business that can make money, in addition to honey can also help maintain stamina and health during pregnancy, and help the intake of high nutrients for the growth of a healthy fetus in the womb. this is amazing ..... hopefully imitated by every one.
