Hi all..
 
Well, in the back pages of Am.B.J. there is an ad - 420 cells in 5
mins, thats some claim.  Then there is the Jenter and cup kit systems.
 
It looks like the traditional grafting method may be, for the serious
Q breeder and perhaps amateur, a dying art.  These systems offer an
easy method of rearing perfect queens and you don't need to have 20/20
vision!  There is also the potential for 100 per cent success.
 
What do the Q rearing experts think of these systems when compared to
grafting?
 
What are the pros and cons?
 
Should I/we take the plunge and invest in one of these systems?
 
 
Lets give this a good airing
 
Regards
Philip Earle
