Hello All,
I have read many times about how important the production of drones is for
successful queen rearing. I have not found a source of information on how
to set them up. How many mating nucs should I have per drone colony? I
have also heard that it is a good idea to have drone colonies in the
surroundings of your mating nuc apiary, how many? how far? There are just
too many questions!!! How about drone congregation areas?
I will appreciate any help.
Thanks all! Greetings from Mexico.
