Huge bee hive near my front door!!! *pic*

I don't know about ducks but my chickens often graze amid my gardens surrounded by honey bees and the chickens and bees ignore each other.
I love living next to a bee farm. free pollination!
Sweet! This is good news for me! xD My neighbors have two hives and I actually just found out they're moving!! So maybe I might have to get a hive to keep the cherries and flowers and such pollinated!!! :)
 
Make sure you really read up on beekeeping and be very sure it is something you are willing to do! It is a very expensive and time-consuming hobby, albeit very rewarding should you choose to do it

The bees do all the work and once or twice a year you collect the honey. You don't have to feed a hive. What's the big expense once you buy or build a box and buy some bees. You need a net suit (for lack of a better name) and a smoker.
