Hello,

I started at 9 and then stopped for a time due to moving to the city and have recently started back up at age 34. I plan on raising our kids with their own hives so they can learn as they grow as well.

Only 6% of beeks are male or female. I didn’t realise that there was a third cast of beekeeper!

43...after dreaming of bees for 20+ years...and because I couldn't have chickens!

We didn't answer the male/female question because the internet has taught us to be trigger-happy rather than to read the question carefully before answering.

The poll design allowed us to answer with age only...

is it just me who can only select either an "age range" option or a "have dangly bits or not" option, but not both......???
