What about up in Canada were it gets -25 to -30 you say I can run them with no issues 😅

How many gallons from August 1 (when I pull my honey) to the beginning of sugar brick feeding would you expect to feed if your 10 frame hive was pretty empty on stores.

I was unclear this was the first video I've watched ,so do you overwinter using one brood box?

I miss this guy.

Very good video. Thank you.

Do you take a brood frame out and put a new one in??

you mentioned that you pull a nuc from your singles in the spring - is that your swarm control? What other swarm control methods do you use?

Devan, what happens to the brood box without a queen?

Devan, how do I introduce a queen into the brood box that has no queen? Do I have to purchase one? Or is there a way to have them raise one?

Thanks for doing amazing videos. Really miss your updates. All the best!

I carnt kill them I do the sugar shake because there not in Victoria Australia as yet

Thank you for sharing as well

Hi hope u are fine and everything is OK.thank you so much.

What's up with the bees bro??long time

What time of the year was this done? Early spring, I'm assuming.

Did you produce the part 3 of your series, can't find one with an appropriate title.

Hi Devin saw your video..really good. I 've been running double deep to help control hive population. I've seen other vids on single. Brood chamber. But you and others are having to pull brood out regularly to control over population or swarming..and make Nucs or splits. I don't want to make splits or Nucs all the time..are wintering in singles as well? If so how do you provide enough honey to last the winter?

Good stuff!

You do a great job. Thank you 😊

if you didn't have queen confined to one box and had plenty of empty comb for her you wouldn't be having to go through your hives knocking down queen cells, you prevent issues, not waste time fixing problems you created. if a queen is under 2yrs old they will not be inclined to swarm if you keep the honey off them and queen has plenty of room to lay.

You do a WONDERFUL job with your videos!

Very well done - the video is excellent!

misconception: top insulation (>6cm, >2.5inch) = no moisture over bee cluster but running down the sides to the bottom where bees can drink it - like in natural tree cavities! See Prof Tom Seeley: ua-cam.com/video/xIO3F35nlyE/v-deo.htmlsi=GNzggdDYdsXM84iE&t=2774 -- no top entrence!

math also includes: better bred Qs & situation in winter: honey storage + brood/cluster-frames in one box: that's why continental beekeepers have that Langstroth jumbo/Dadant box : 470 x 370 x 295 mm; frame: 480 x 285 mm (after Brother Adam ) and in square 12 frame design to switch position 90degrees of boxes

Well done absolutely brilliant presentation

Can you effectively use single brood chambers with 8 frame equipment?

Gosh I miss this guys vids.

I still come back and review Devan's videos from time to time. By far the best beekeeping vids on UA-cam. Great channel. Very digestible. Good luck in Florida

Sticky boards are not really necessary, just a board will do the trick. Anything falling down is usually dead or not very mobile. If you have any mites on the board? Then you will undoubtedly have hundreds or thousands more in the hive.

@8:00 steal? 😂 you're the one stealing, not the bees. The honey belongs to them. They did all the work.

The problem with single management is it doesn't lend itself well to natural beekeeping. once you remove the supers the bees are starving. There is a limit to what they can put in one box so it requires more inputs like feeding, supplements etc..

Why do you have to find the queen before shaking the bees off the frames?

Hi from the central Highlands, Victoria Australia 👋. We don’t use queen excluders and find that over winter, the colony survives by positioning centrally between the upper and lower boxes. If the Spring is colder, we may extract less honey (over the season), but we haven’t lost a colony over winter. Thanks for your post- it’s interesting 👍

Nice higrise here !!! Thanks for your fime asnd explanation - and sharing. Are you going to leave A SINGLE Brood box through the next winter ? ... and how much honey they need for winter season if a single brood chamber ...Sept- March. ???? Thanks !

What about if ya had a swarm and get a laying worker?

Never wear a shroud, then I'll watch the video, like and subscribe...

Enjoyed that, very helpful.

Hey Devan, I enjoy your videos but I haven’t seen any new ones lately. Are you still making them? Let me know. Thanks

I'm my opinion (and others) your better to move queen box and put new nuc where mother colony was, that way you get foragers coming back to original location to keep up bee population since they won't have a laying queen for a month

This video, especially the math part, is the reason why I started managing hives as single brood chambers and using queen excluders 5 years ago. Everything became easier and simpler. And that math part is true in practice.

Devan , questions please , do you use screen bottom boards ? Also how do you harvest your honey ? What do you leave for the bees in fall and winter ? Thanks Bruce

Do you add another box of honey for winter food?

Good video mate 🕯🐝🍯

Excellent video. I believe I'll try that on a couple of my hives

Incredible. Bare arms gives me the chills.

Great vid thanks for sharing.

I did the single thru the winter with out the excluder and a super worked great. However whats the trick for the rest of the year? Every time I get brood like the video they swarm and then stop taking honey up and fill the bottom box with honey and I'm back to deeps as supers as I have to checkerboard them. I have 2 hives that the queens never made it back or failed in the beginning of the flow. I even did splits. Is there something I'm missing?

Do I add the queen excluder before the super frames are filled?

I have only ever used a single brood box, I don't know of anyone within the club that uses 2 brood boxes, it makes managing the bees and their conditions much easier with one box
