I would like to learn more about these strains of honey bee. Is anyone
actively using them? Since Laboriosa is the largest known honey bee (right up
there with Dorsata) it is my understanding that these bee are very productive
but there does not seem to be much done in the way of studying them. I would
like to experiement with these bees but I haven't come across much information
about them. Has anyone had any experience with these bees?
