> Weaver has Aussie queens early 

Not this year, as of now. From their website:

> The ABF and the AHPA petitioned USDA-APHIS to close the border to Australian imports last year. USDA announced a temporary suspension of imports of bees and queens.

> USDA-APHIS has not provided any official written explanation for what it is doing, and so it is very difficult to respond to or refute their claims when they don't publish the official rationale for their decision.

> We encourage Beekeepers who need queens, and who are unable to get queens from US suppliers, to contact USDA with their concerns.
