I sure do. It is [log in to unmask]    By the way how the hell
are you.
I have had a very hard time finding any of the eye mutants. One other note I
 have found some things the hard way.
 
1. If you find some one with a queen that is producing mutants make a queen
cage up and send it to them with detailed instructions on how to ship the
queen to you or go and fetch her.
 
2. Don't get excited untill you see them. I have been sad many times. Cause
they were just plain bees.
 
I have had people send me queens in cages without candy or workers etc. and
guess what when they got here they was dead and stank..... So heed note one.
 
I still have not seen any white eyed drones from the queens that I I.I. so
who knows the viability of drones in the white mutant eye color is very low
in some of the groups. There are six diffrent mutant eye colors that appear
white and then change to other colors. We  will have to be patient. I only
had a few drones from the queen.
 
If you should happen to find any colors in addition to the ones I have here
let me know I will do the same for you.
 
The book by Rindere is a great book to have and well worth the cost.
