I will ask this question as I do agree bees don't really become
acclimated...
If one was selling bees whether nucs or queens how would one advertise.
Because when I see these terms it's part of a sales pitch to describe a
product.
I have had hives lead by queens that ate themselves out of house and home
due to my virginia short single spring honey flow. I had to feed them all
summer and winter... Large brood nest but couldn't put any weight on them.
While others have been excellent in my area doing what I need them to and
when. So how would one describe or advertise these bees?
Would they be local ( whatever that really means)
Would they be locally adapted (thy are not really adapted)
Locally acclimated (but bees don't acclimate)
When advertising one can not write out a full description so what would be
the best way to clearly, consisly, and honestly describe a product produced
from bees that have been selected either by raw survival or human selection
in a local area over the years and simply just work in my area?
I'm just curious since you pointed out that bees truley don't acclimate
(again which I agree with)...
