Listen "Well... It Depends - Swarms (124)"
Episode Synopsis
A lot of times, when somebody asks us a bee question, the best answer we can give them is, "It Depends." In today's episode, Kim and Jim explore the topic of Swarms. Where did it come from? Where do you put it? What do you do with the queen? Should you feed them? As they explore how to manage this newly caught swarm, they realize there are no definitive answers, as there are so many answers based upon the circumstances and the beekeeper's goals. It just depends. Listen today, and let them know how you'd manage the swarm! __________________ Thanks to Betterbee for sponsoring today's episode.
