Hi everybody,
There has been alot of talk regarding the aggresivness of second
generation queens. But there is something that I'm still not clear
about. If you have a closed mated queen and you allow some of her eggs
to develope into queens. Are those queens not a very close copy of her?
Therefor does the aggressive gene come from the drones in the area?
Would the new queen not have a good chance to carry on the temperment of
her mother? So would it be safe to assume that the breeders of this
strain also have this problem to some degree? And if they don't, how do
they avoid it? I hope someone can clear this up for me! Thanking you
in advance.
