The garden beekeeper will probably soon be able to use an external location for certain beekeeping activities, such as the formation of offshoots. Differently than in the domestic garden, where always someone has an eye on the bees, the smart wooden hives will entice potential pilferers to take them away.

In order to leave no doubt at all about the ownership, the garden beekeeper had a branding stamp made, with which the boxes and the frames will be marked.

In the picture you can see a homemade feeding frame, with which the offshoots are fed sugar syrup in the time when there is not much natural food. For sealing it was filled with liquid beeswax.
