Sweet Walzmas in July

[BLachance75]

Today was honey extraction day at my house which means it’s time to have a mid year Walzmas giveaway.

How much wax will I end up with after extracting.



Everyone can take one guess. The closest without going over will receive a care package of honey.

I will leave this open until I finish cleaning and rendering the wax into a block.

I don't know how/where to make my guess but I wanna play so I'm gonna give a solid rounded out number of 100lbs

[scottieb]

Are we guessing weight or volume?

[BLachance75]

Weight in lbs

[SuperAtomic]

2 pounds, 3 ounces

[XEMON]

You get about 2oz per frame right?
that would make about 12/12.5lb for what you have in the picture ... So I'll say 12.5lb 😅

Do you buy hives or collect them from the wild?
Always wanted to have a few hives at home (thinking about 2 super ...)

[BLachance75]

I’ve never paid attention to how much wax I get per frame. I originally bought packages to get started. Now I make splits off of my current colonies so I haven’t had to buy bees in a few years. I’ve tried to catch swarms but haven’t had any luck with anything other than swarms from my own colonies.

I'll go 2lbs even

[SETHZILLA!]

7.25 lbs

Ill say $1 Bob... lol, in all seriousness, wasn't this a trick question last year? Or was that because you specifically asked what the weight was?

Ill say 11.75 pounds or 188 ounces because I love your product and want to win.

That was diomedes being all sciency last time. I’m not falling for his trickery again

10 pounds. An uneducated guess based off of others that seem to know what they are talking about.
Much like sailing and building a gyrocopter, beekeeping is a very interesting thing that I will never get around to doing.
Pretty cool!

[Seajay]

umm... 21.8 lbs.

[Junglepeanut]

No clue..... how about 17.2?

And thank you for the opportunity

[Pumpytrilly1]

13.2 pounds

[Hellion360]

15 pounds

[Rainmaker]

I'm gonna say 9.75 pounds.

I didn’t forget about this. I haven’t had a chance to render the wax until today. I put the first load in the solar melter this morning.

I’ll announce the winner Monday morning so you still have a few days to place a guess.
