Hello Barry & All,
>Who says a golden yellow bee is better in some way than a dark
> bee?
I have always prefered the Italian bee for a number of reasons. My partner
prefers the Carniolans.  Our last grafting of SMR queens produced one
* yellow* queen. I was thrilled but my partner said the bees must have moved
a egg. Has any other beekeepers grafting SMR came up with a completely
yellow SMR queen?  So far we have only had the one yellow queen out of
several hundred SMR grafts.
