>(5.0 not 4.9) for a while.

What happens when you take bees that have been "regressed"
to 4.9 small cell foundation and have been on it for some time, and
then allow then free rein, like in a top bar hive, to make whatever
they want.  Do they stay at 4.9 or do they start building something
bigger if they are not "forced" to stay at the small cell size?  (That
is, do they have to be forced to stay at 4.9 or do they stay there
once they get there even if you allow them to build whatever they
want?)

Just curious.

What if someone wanted to purchase a package of small cell
bees with queen to experiment with.  Who would they contact?
Are there any sources available?
