Chris:
Some how I am not seeing this as written about in the bees
I keep that are smaller. But then they have more access to
varied propolis/resins from more varied floral sources,also
that is critical to broodnest sterilization and injested by
the bees themsleves. So am I wrong in assuming that the
bees looked at by Bailey were on enlarged combs FWIW being
maintained? What were the parameters of the bees looked at
for living/maintenance? Ferals, or domesticated and then
what type?
