e BEES! you guys like bees!
Probably know raw honey too!

I had this sign made up when I was driving, I did not like getting woke up in the middle of the night.

We LOVE natural, raw honey! We only buy local, raw honey. My husband loves it in his coffee. We go through quite a lot of it. I gave my daughter honey for a sore throat once. Now she thinks it's the "cure all". Anytime she feels bad she's begging for a spoonful of honey.

I see requests for help removing hives often on a facebook beekeeper page "Beekeeping in Louisiana" and craigslist. You could put an ad up stating you want a swarm and people will call. I'd put in the ad the areas you're willing to collect them from. Some people brave enough I've seen charge a fee to go get them and take them away. Others just do it for free to keep the honey bees. I would also state you're only wanting a honey bee swarm! Lol everyone will call you for wasp removals!

Thanks I might wait for someone to post they need to get rid of them. Not to sure about craigs list after what happened to Celie. Thanks Pam

Too bad it's not a few weeks ago. A honey bee swarm started to build a hive right next to my back steps. My husband managed to move them and the bowl they took over out into the trees. I don't know if they stayed in that vicinity or not.

I am a wasp assassin. It pleases me to take down nest lol we have a honey bee hive on the property.they're going on their 2nd year and love the gardens the the fish pond, I am allergic to stings and had violent deadly reactions as a child but have epi pens available in case but never have I been bothered. I stalk them for pics even and they just mosey about calm is the key. Panic sends a signal they can literally smell and target that to save the queen...don't be scared tho, they really are peaceful. save a hive. Please save some bees. They are so incredibly important to our survival and dying out so fast
They love the Mexican tarragon and orange peels in the compost lol

The wasps *do* eat young tomato worms tho!

Have you robbed them or is it a wild hive? Pam

I'm not sure that rescues count. You didn't set out to get them, they were a good deed. They are "neutral" and shouldn't count in chicken math.

Absolutely true. That's rule 22.

Someone I know on FB commented that the "checkered, poofy headed chickens" freak her out. (in reference to some pictures I posted of my spitzhaubens) I just don't get not-chicken people. lol. I don't think most people truly realize that most chickens aren't boring, generic white or brown round things. I guess I've gone so far over the "crazy" line, I can't see the other side of it anymore! 

There is no other side, that's why you can't see it.
