>>> . a double QE and honey frame barrier  (say 10) between the queens will the bees from the two colonies allow the queens to coexist or will they eventually kill one of the queens?     ...Ray Nabors has been doing this successfully, and writing about it in ABJ, and he hasn't reported any queen loss issues.
