Too early for a shook swarm?

They've put it back up, shorn of all the critical comments save those of Finman, who they accuse of being a troll, and mine.
 
Apparently they also sent Erichalfbee a rather abusive PM

I've had two messages
One asked me not to make comments or judge anybody's video especially as I haven't made any videos myself. It appeared to come from a "sympathiser/fan. The other started in a more sinister manner and came from one of the shook swarm team. I didn't read it, trashed it. Life's too short. I won't bother getting involved any more.
 
Maybe the thread title should include the bee education url and location as there is no way to see people's concerns if the video is hidden.

I must went and gave a thumbs down to their other vids. Loads of claptrap, waffle, etc.
I've even subscribed to his/their u-toob channel, so I don't miss 'down-thumbing' anything that is carp.

I cannot get the picture from my mind.

They collect brood frames off from the hive and put wintered bees into an empty box.

The bees are have done their brood with their last vigors. Those Bees will not live for next 4 weeks.


Then they collect off the new frames. What they do with " 2 boxes contaminated new frames" ?


I bet that they call themselves natural beekeepers.

Actually it was a good teaching video about madness of beekeepers.

If you go to their facebook page they have a video showing one of these frames to demonstrate what uncapped brood looks like. Both sides with a perfect patten the phrase 'perfect laying queen' is used twice. Given they've cut it out of the frame I assume they binned it moments later.

On the upside they also say they are meeting their new mentor this week so I assume fewer videos of this will appear.
