 Hi Sue , I'm glad you made it on the list.There were positive comments
about the New World Carniolans back in Nov. We were talking about Queen
problems.This queen problem is more complex than the genetics. I have
looked over some of my notes , after you told me about the meeting ing
Portland Or.ABF.
 If we would only use the cells that the workers seem to cluster on ,when
they are finishing them. Would that give us stronger queens?
