For my queen breeding it makes a big difference that we had the coldest spring since 1962, we really had some freak weather here, 10-12 degC instead of 18-22. So I have postponed grafting and the rest, doing everything 2-3 weeks later and had to say please wait to early customers. I am not aware of any exceptional queen losses this year.
