I want to try a couple of hives of Carniolans (from California) this year.
All the literature I can find says the Carniolans have a strong tendency to
swarm. I know that Sue Coby at OSU has pretty much eliminated this through
selection (New World Carniolan) in her bees but I wonder how commercial
hives measure up.... Any information is appreciated!
