Smoking out a queen from a column and snatching another from the second removal on the same day.

he's just gonna have yeah there you go there you go [Music] yep looks good hello it's Mr red and I'm up here in where are we we're ham in Louisiana today is July 11th 20th June yeah June 11th and and uh and I'm all messed up because I'm so excited about what we are doing here today so today we got world famous Mike Barry put me on this one and Charlie Good Time Charlie's back there too and we got another Mr Ed on this one and in fact this is Mr Ed's house that we're at and we are going to be pulling bees out of this column that have been here for a while how long have they been here these babies probably five years well bees have been in this column for five years no telling how long these bees have been in there but to do our job today it's going to require a little bit of Machinery work and for that Charlie show what we got for this all right yeah so it ought to be a pretty doggone interesting video on this one but by the grace of God these bees right here I'll be backing these girls up taking the comb out maybe finding our Queen hopefully and all this going up to the attic young guys ready to Wrangle bees let's do it that's right I think we're ready to start backing up these girls but I think the real action is going to happen when we take that cap off and find that cone that comes out and see with this hot but we need to get rid of these bees initially so that we can take the cap off so let's vacuum these up foreign [Music] no there's not yet all right let's let's lift the cap up front nope don't watch the ball I'm watching the wall you're good I'm watching while you grabbing okay that's good right there all right go ahead and back up Frank good all right sweet let me swing it to you now not yet let's get let's get back yeah go ahead actually that way he can get outside you just watch the wall I'm watching the wall you go ahead packing up okay just watch watch the cooking on the wall I got that all right back up some more now keep on backing up raise it a little more work no just keep backing up come on down all right swing it to me Frankie all right now back it on up some more and then what I want you to do when we get out here in the grass is Let It Down I got it I guess this one I guess they just well this is why we didn't have any comb on the bottom of that cup because they have ripped the top of it off so for us to do anything we're going to have to remove These Bricks right here and hopefully it's not going to be too much of a job I'll get these bees off of you with the back and then we're going to take these bricks off of it what I thought was brick up here is actually some kind of it may actually just be propolis that they they propolize on the bottom but it's not brick on the top all this section in the top which is about an eight by eight section all that is Chrome now if we were to start trying to remove the comb at that point up at the top of your comb it's always going to be honey so what's going to happen is if we start moving this honey is just going to be running down it'll be running down the entire length of that comb and it it just would be a mess it's not practical so what we're going to do is we're going to drill holes into the mortar below us and we're going to smoke use smoke but we can also mix honey bandit in the smoke and that combination of smoke and honey Bandit will push these bees out and hopefully we're going to be able to fill that chamber up so much with smoke that everybody's want to give up The Ghost and I'm just going to stay up here with the back and vacuum bees that's all I'm going to be doing so that's that's our plan of attack and after we get the majority of the bees out then we'll start removing cones [Music] foreign [Music] all over again if ain't smoke or at least go in there and then we'll finish nope I don't know I think I hear him yeah they're it's getting in there Mike there it goes she's taking a minute oh yeah you could they they don't like it hello check it out folks got it Thomas wow thank you Jesus look at that he didn't say a word [Music] share one yeah we got the queen house no no show me some of that ugly stuff what you think Jeff you want to take a bite I ain't gonna eat none of this you're not gonna bite it no no no Randy wood I don't know if the whole process they might be a month old maybe two uh once in a week [Applause] now that is the biggest piece of brood cone we found and there's uncapped brood up in there look at all the pollen up in here man this this comb is like iron when you say it's been about at least five years yeah it's that's all we're doing now we have we're watching mystery clean everything out and Mr Ed is watching Mr Clean everything out he's doing it right so he's the real Mr Ed that's right this is this is the real Mr Ed right here he's just a replica up there he's a wannabe yeah yes yeah there you go at least he's doing it right he's doing the way I taught him how to do it it's not newer but this but all this is old yeah but this you could probably eat that thing oh yeah not too good I did not pull out all of the comb that was in here it's like I can't believe that that many bees were in this tiny little space um but there's plenty of combs still in there and it is so hard I mean I I can't even tear it so I just took out the stuff that's on the top I did get into The Brood a little bit but that's all I'm digging out of there because it's just my arm won't reach much further than that and I want to point out this little spot right here between the bricks that was our entrance I think that's pretty cool they their entrance was hidden so it was definitely a well protected entrance and that I'm sure that they use that little space right there as an entrance as well but that is it and look look at the dirt that is on the bricks just from the traffic of the bees just sitting on there a very very nice having thank you Jesus for letting us get the queen out of there without destroying at least the bees we got the bees and we could bring put comb in there and we can take care of them but man this was a bad one all right so we wrap that one up and now we're on the same property but we're going to go look at another one on the property and this property is just gorgeous and as we go over there Charlie's gonna shoot you some video because it's just spectacular [Music] yourself there's our bees in the wall right there I don't know if that camera's gonna pick that up but the flares is showing them oh I see right it looks pretty neat in there that's that's our beach right there here's the second one that we're going to do in the same day now I can tell you right now Charlie is already following a complaint with the Union boss about lunch break being delayed and stuff but we're gonna we're gonna omit that little detail and we're gonna press on and we're gonna get these bees out here now the word is these bees have only been here for three months now who knows how how big that comb is you saw from the Flair it looked like it was about that long but who knows so we decided we're going to pull the the wood off the side instead of the inside and we're going to look and see what we're gonna do with this beehive right here let's Wrangle these bees Charlie oh boy wow I've seen it I just saw it I just saw it that looked nice and pretty yellow that board's about to fall I'm gonna be shot look at that good shot foreign that slab configuration so we're gonna use the uh we'll be able to cut out beautiful pieces of this comb on this one uh been here like they said three months and look what they've done in three months that is very impressive three gentle bees and we're going to use the everything be back to remove these girls and we're going to get this Frame all this comb and our ice boxes and we're going to go ahead and get this stuff framed up all right this this is nice thank you [Music] oh [Music] [Music] [Music] me he tried to spray though we haven't let him get him I hope he didn't you know I mean I didn't see any dead yeah waiting on you I'm rolling it's going to be going to be soft yeah it's going to be a big piece you might want to lay it on that board [Music] that's what I said [Music] [Music] [Music] sorry about the ball I ain't looking at that size though come on down he's not here come on down I can't even see up everybody you gotta be behind there he told me work yes I didn't do something [Music] [Music] okay what's up there all right I'll get this one bring it down she ain't there either I can get it Mike [Music] [Music] I can't stand yeah [Music] there she is there she is and dropped your queen cage I got it all right hand me the comb when I get there too we can't get the cake well yeah go ahead thank you Jesus wow [Music] was up there he pulled the cone down and she was just wide open I mean even the dirt rooster could have found her I mean she was like right there well the rooster could have found her if his daddy was right there to point her right right but he would have found it he would because he was in the open yeah good deal good deal thank you Jesus look at that that's what we want yeah the camera overheated folks sorry about that it's it's hot here in Southeast Louisiana we are going to now finish up [Music] thank you good hey pilot in it too yep now here is the comb that we got out of the second Pond we got all of that I'll be able to frame up all of that stuff right there plus I got a little bit of honey for me right there oh yeah and there are bees along with bear Queen right here I got my own Charlie we're gonna we're gonna do a tune is that your cousin Charlie yeah that's my cousin what's his name yeah they kind of we kind of look we looked about the same he does he got that same same look in his eyes as you do Charlie that's cousin Jeff wrong look look at him eyes yeah that's right that's Jeffrey put his hat on he puts yours on there you go now we're not gonna be able to

we don't usually do that but Mike he he just says no come on we can go get it we could go get it and you know Charlie said you know we could go get it I said but I gotta do the work that's right so we did go get it we did go get it no he got it so Charlie what about your thoughts for today my thoughts for today was that I can't believe we did two in the same day and we finished before 12 o'clock uh but uh no it was it was straightforward really good it's hot um but it was fun I guess you guys I I thought it was good and to do two in June and it's unheard of for us but uh it was fun and that second one was textbook easy enough so we're going to go up to The Abbey at least try in Iowa we're going to go up the alley alley The Abbey and the first time we're going to put on some old cone throw in some honey frames and get them set up on on that this second one we're going to frame up all that comb get them set up and all that'll be good so we still got about another hour and a half two hours work to do at the Abbey but we're done for right here yeah that is into my nap time yeah and it's going to be in the air conditioner too right oh yes that's that's good so I think that's right I think that's about it thanks for watching keep on watching they'll be making more God bless this Mr Ed Good Time Charlie Mike we're old famous Mike we're all famous we're out into the next video God bless you oh and don't [ __ ] don't forget oh yeah and cousin Clyde yeah there cousin Clyde right there bye guys [Music] foreign [Music]
