Does anyone have experience with the Mini-Plus breeding hive for
overwintering queens? This is a foamed polystyrene hive holding  6
quarter-Dadant frames each 218*160 mm, 252mm top bar. Two frames can be
pushed together forming one shallow Dadant frame. Two Mini-Plus brood
chambers can be used to overwinter a small colony to provide a queen in
early Spring.In Germany a Mini-Plus costs around 20 Euro.
