back from the dead!

[biglongdarren]

i remember somebody on here saying that they found a bee which they though was dead and decided to take it home to look at it closer,and on the way home the bee came aroud again after warming up in the car...
well i was up tidying a few brancehs around my hives this evening and noticed 8 bees sitting on the ground in front of one of the hives,no other bees were flying by now.
so out of interest i popped all 8 of them in a plastic tub and sat them in front of the heater in the car,sure enough after a minute they started moving,5 minutes later i set them at the entrance till there hive and all but one walked indoors.
good deed done for the day i guess..Darren

I want to join the bee savers club. Does stamping on wasps count? Lol

That is really interesting.

I read that at 7 degs "bees stopped moving" and thought it was unusual wording... I had expected "died" or the like.

I wonder how cool that can get and still resurect?
...and for how long?

Save a bee every day!


If the queen lays 1000 eggs a day in one hive, from another end every day 1000 bees will die a day.

I am in club too. It is so much to be done.

The bee just go into choma in that degree and cannot rise up with its own help. So it needs sun's help or yours.
