Hi All,

I buy my Russian queens and package bees from George Kidney of Loomis
California. The queens are accepted well with the packages bees after
hiving. I have had the workers of these queens make the usual supersedure
cells but have observed them tearing them down before the queen hatches. I
like the idea that the bees are ready with a backup queen if needed. I think
that the Russians are a very efficient bee and I am pleased with the way
they are.
