Does anyone have experience with the Purvis Bros gold line bees after supercedure?  I have had supercedure queens that were nasty with the old midnight queen from York on occasion and want to avoid this problem. I am about to order a dozen or so queens to replace about half of the winter losses .Losses usually one ar two hives but this winter I lost 29 out of 45 with no obvious cause.Time to split off my survivors. and start some new colonies with a new line of queens.
