One reader pointed out that my recent note could be interpreted to read that
I am no longer going to use New World Carnolian queens. Good point, BUT NOT
TRUE.
My spring queens, now on order and due here in 6 weeks, will be 100% NWC.
This is a great strain and I am committed to it. However, my introduction
losses from those raised in the 120 degree California summer (50 C) have
just been too great, so I am going with the Canadian "Italian/Carnolians"
for summer queens.
