>>> ...A Missouri beekeeper (not me) shipped two semi loads dug from
snow banks to California two winters ago... The hives were 80% dead when
arrived in California and the rest were not strong enough to polinate.

Do you know if they died on the way or were in bad shape when they left
Mo.?
What happens if the hives encounter bad weather en route?
