Beekeeping

[Mike B.]

Say, I'm looking for anyone around Dodge who is a BeeKeeper. My brother in Newton is and is offerring me alot of help, but someone local to talk with would be nice.

Do any members know of any beekeepers? Thanks!

Used to be a beekeeper out of Sublette. Jeff Voghts (votes) ??? Not sure that is correct speelling. He and his wife use to sell honey. He is/was a field tech with Foley Tractor Co. out of Sublette's location.

Well as originally stated - I thought it was funny as hell and still don't know who Izzard is - probably never will. I just thought it was a pretty funny rant - which is how I saw it. I missed the quotations all together.

Course no need to get in a pissin contest over it - ain't that important.

Poor ZEB is the only one who actually gave any info at all - the rest of us including you CKY were doin what we do best.................... BSin........ lighten up!!!

So MIKE- how's it commin with da B's?????? There is a vacant house next to us with a wall full of bees. Has been vacant a year or so but the bees have been there for about 3 years. The owner came out with a spray can last week - thought I would not be able to get up off the ground from laughin. Down here the stories I have seen on the news of this kinda stuff required a beekeeper that smokes them out, then they tear the wall off and start scrapin. Ususally the beekeeper finds the queen and removes her - after that ALL the bees leave. As usual the Queen is the cornerstone. Bees can and do cause lots of damage in a short amount of time. Makes caulkin holes that much more important............... Good Luck!!

Bubba & cky,

Never meant for my original post to cause such a fuss!


Made in the USA,

No luck with finding any local bee-keepers. I have located a few good web sites with info. but I would really like someone local to chat with about beekeeping.

Bubba & cky, are my punctuation and quatation marks correct? LOL!!

Mike---if I can get in a word about the BEES without the BIRDS----
There used to be a fellow up at Larned that had bees and sold honey. If I remember right, his honey business was located on the East side of town in the Industrial Park. I believe it was his son who used to work at the Kwik at 14th and Earp, Ron something. Also, I was thinking there used to be a beekeeper at Garfield. The only other one that I can think of is in Hillsboro.
