Old Mega Bee
« on: February 26, 2014, 04:51:43 pm »
Digging around in the bee area of the basement and found about 20 lbs of megabee dry.  Has to be at three years old but kept dry and no bugs.  Looked and smelled like new.  What would you do with it?

hi dunkel, i'd use it, you can always freeze patties to use later, but it can be used in syrup too. here's the website:

Mega Bee Liquid, Patty, Dry Feed; Mixing Instructions

also a pdf download on the same page for mixing tips.

and also a candy board recipe, don't think you need it in kentucky now, but here it is:

Yep..  I'd probably mix it 50/50 with fresh and feed it. Either dry or patties. Long as it didnt get moldy and isnt clumped.

Sounds like a go then.  I don't have any fresh to add to it so its on its own.  These twenty degree days and zero wind chills are taking me out.  Wish I did have boards on a few.  I may try to use some in syrup, liquid style , when it warms up.  Maybe a little open feeding here at home.  I guess I'll start patties the next warm spell in a week or so.  Thanks for the "feed" back.
