Hi all,

I have heard that AHB's are noted for swarming, several times a year.True,
not true? If the AHB are your best producers, why do we need to build up the
numbers of Italians or Russians, or whatever breed you may own. I was under
the impression that numbers are what produce surplus honey. I was also of
the opinion the only difference in AHB and the other breeds is the alarm
odor and intensity of aggressive behavior.
