This is a tragedy for everyone involved, and for all of us of the world too- we need our bees.<br />I am thinking if I ever get started that I'll separate my hives so that if this kind of thing were to happen, then maybe the other hive might have a chance. <br />I remember years ago I was given like a 5-gallon bucket full of dark wild honeycomb & left without a clue as to how to get the honey out of it (no internet then either!) What a mess I made, lol. I'd rather do it right even if it takes a long time than to warm it all up and literally squeeze the wax to extract honey.<br />Thank you for sharing this even though you don't have all the answers. It's good to have these experiences even though they are tragic- there's bound to be something to learn from it that will help somewhere else or at another time. At the heart of it- I hope you don't give up on keeping bees.Laureli https://www.blogger.com/profile/03648493780017930693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-241265868354812543.post-12906404811504065752011-11-21T07:17:06.269-05:002011-11-21T07:17:06.269-05:00So sorry about your Bees and the frustration you m...So sorry about your Bees and the frustration you must be feeling right now.<br /><br />Good luck if you try to start again come spring.<br /><br />Blessings KelsieKelsie from Our Country Home and Studio Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13320099117051996061noreply@blogger.com
