have you guys put pollen substitute?


I've put out pollen sub. about two weeks ago, weather turned warm, bees were all over the shavings/sawdust in the horse stalls, so I put some out. Had to order more, they were going through about a pound or so a day. Then they slacked off some, and we got some nasty weather for about a week. Looks like I will have to order more though, this week looks to be nice and sunny and warm, nothing blooming. I put out some pollen sub and they. are all over it.
 
we started putting our substitute in september? because we need 8 frame avg for the pollination . what city are you in
 
Just commenting to start following. I'm new to BYC and would love to get bees in the future.
 
I'm new to chickens as well. Been reading about bees for a while just haven't gotten any. Hoping to soon!
 
I just saw a video on kickstarter about some people that have invented a hive that has honey on tap & you don't really have to disturb the hive at all. It was too cool!!!! I hope they get the funds & make that baby so i can buy one! :)
