Since we all have completed our honey gathering seasons and for
the most part everyone's bees are winterized. I think it would be
a good thing if anyone that wanted to respond would tell the list
about QUEEN sources that are very good to excellant that each has
used. I for one would give a very good word for B Weavers bee 's and
also R Weavers bee's. They are very industrious very low rate of
supercedure, and very good honey producers, also with a very good
temper of course most of their bees are from a "buckfast" orientation.
also they are very tolerant of "pressure" that leads to the swarm
instinct. A very excellant bee for the mid to northern producer.
I would appreciate any sharing about truly " very good " stock that
performs well it will be to everyone's benefit to share such info.
Thanks Jim Maus
