>>>beekeepers are in fact interested in fast buildup but care little about longevity, then it matters little if a queen burns herself out in a year. ...<><><>  If a beekeeper is interested in propagating daughter queens from a remarkable producer in his bee yard would it beehove him/her to take the queen from that hive and make a split from the hive with the queen installed in a nuc for the remainder of her life so as to encourage a long queen life (Reduced egg laying requirements)?
