IWF Videos

[B+.]

Hivemaker referred to the old IWF videos in another thread and I wondered how many people had seen them.

Here is a link to C1801 "Rearing of queen bees". Its in five parts due to the way Youtube splits up videos into manageable chunks

Part 1 of 5 https://youtu.be/8yN5qM2Et6w?list=PLbr7jvL12x97kFUXXZvRXQ4T8yS5LgDt6
Part 2 of 5 https://youtu.be/huvRlpuQpTw?list=PLbr7jvL12x97kFUXXZvRXQ4T8yS5LgDt6
Part 3 of 5 https://youtu.be/-DuL4ViHXxQ
Part 4 of 5 https://youtu.be/djR1nkCGbK0
Part 5 of 5 https://youtu.be/JX8gSkRHGts

Some of it is a little dated now but its still worth watching

Its interesting that they advocate the removal of drone brood for varroa control in this one. They stopped after they found it was happening on such a scale that there were insufficient drones to mate with their virgin queens.
