>The main thing a first time handler of a queen should consider is not
hurting the queen rather than thinking they are going to get stung by the
queen at any time.
Hi again Bob:
Well yes, I completely agree with you on that. While it wouldn’t be
correct to say a queen would ‘absolutely’ never sting, it’s probably not
incorrect to say she would ‘virtually’ never sting a handler. My comment
was simply made to do a little mindless bragging. Being stung by a queen,
in my opinion, should be considered a badge of honor!
Regards,
Dick
