Overwintered Nucs: First Look AND The Smallest colonies I've ever overwintered! #beekeeping #bees #beekeeperlife #beekeeper #lyson

This is a long video on account of missing putting out a video last week.

Finally getting a chance to take a look into the overwintered nucs. Some good, some a little behind, and one loss.

I also take a look at two of the smallest colonies I've overwintered purposefully as a trial in the Lyson mini mating boxes.

I'm a part time Beekeeper from Ireland, mainly involved in honey production. I have been keeping bees since I was 8 years of age, with a hiatus somewhere in between.

I also do Queen rearing on a self sustaining level.

Currently we maintain around 50 colonies at various apiary sites, but we do have plans for expansion.

We have a number of projects lined up for this year, although we may have to put some on hold until next year due to recent unforeseen events. But we do hope to show you our progress here.

Let me know through the comments if there is anything in particular you would like covered through my videos. I don't intend to do 'how to' or instructional type videos, but rather how I do things; which may not always be the best way, but which I find works for me.

Thanks for watching!
