$10/lb.  I only did 24 oz Queen Anne bottles this year, so $15 a bottle.

Matt I'm not familiar with the Queen Anne style bottles. Do you have a picture? Are these the classic honey bottles sold as queenline? Thanks

Member I am bumping this for a refresher of your interest as well as mine, per a conversation you and I slightly touched on yesterday. Reply number 7 may be of interest to you. Personally I think this is one of the neatest Ideas I have seen in honey production.

Thanks, Phillip.  I agree, I think it's so neat!  It's not exactly the most practical way of getting honey, but it's so cool, I don't care!  :grin:

I went to BYOB this year, working outstanding. Hopefully wont have to buy bottles anymore. Selling for 5.80 a pound out of milk cans. If you keep bees they make Honey,if you split your hives they make more honey. if you're a good beekeeper, they all make more honey, honey is money, you cant get away from that no matter how you sell it.

If anyone is interested in seeing the entire post with more photos and instructions from the author I can find it and post the link. Once the bees cap the honey, he fills the empty space in the jar with honey too. Personally, I dig the presentation and simplicity.


I would love to see / learn more. Here is a page with their howto:

You do realize 24 Fluid ounces is 2 pounds of honey ??  So now you're only getting $7 per pound... In my opinion this is cheap for honey..  I personally have never heard.. Of a Queen Anne  bottles.. Queenline bottles yes. I personally gave up on Queenline bottles. Maybe 30 years ago and went to a classic honey bottles.. On average the classic  Honey bottle is approximately $0.30 less per bottle . Then queenline bottles..  There are very few people who can tell the difference.
 I don't know how to post pictures on this form ?
 So you could actually see the difference..


            BEE HAPPY Jim134 :)

Jim in all your years of experience have you by chance tried the method posted here earlier by JurassicApiary and followed up by microage97? It would be nice to actually talk to someone who has experience with this way of doing things.

Thanks,

Phillip
