Urban Beekeeping: Drones Get the Boot! Inspection of Bucket Sugar Syrup Feeders!
I check on the 2 gallon bucket feeders that I showed you how to make. I find that the buckets are ready to be refilled, the bees used up all of the syrup! I decided to leave the buckets in place while I prepare more syrup. And I show you some drones that get kicked out for the fall/winter. Sad, but that is life!

Picture that you’re a drone and hundreds of thousands bees prepares to kill you and some worker bee tells you that this will happen in 2 minutes. I would actually run for my life till my wings catch fire from speed!!
man… being drone must be sucky! =(
@xOrhan1976 yeah, drones have it rough! they get killed/kicked out in the fall and if they ever get to actually mate, their junk snaps off and they plummet to their death! That is so sad!
Could you please show the link to the video that shows how you do that bucket? Maybe include it in your description? I would appreciate it! I use a top feeder with two troughs in it and a screen access in the middle.
