I ordered some Purvis queens both the Blue and Gold lines, it is
my under standing that the Blue line is tougher than the Gold line to
introduce.
              It would be kind of nice if Bob Harrison was not to busy and
he could tell us his method of introducing both lines. I have Russian nucs
coming in early April and will use them to introduce the Blue line to.  I will try
the New World Carniolans that I have to use for the Gold line. My shipping
date is late June so I should have time to steal some bees and brood from the
Russian nucs.

                      Take care Ray Michaud
