Bob,
These Russians that you have had for four years,
have you requeened? I currently have some Russians
via a study with which I am involved and would like to
continue with Russians in another yard. What was your
source of Russians initially and with requeening if
you did do that? If you want you can respond offline.
I am trying to repopulate my county with
beekeepers via classes each fall and would like to
promote Russians and/or SMR's with my students.
