Mike in LA wrote, "Sue Colby is the original producer of Minnesota Hygienic queens." Actually, I believe it was Marla Spivak who is credited with Minnesota Hygienic queens. As far as true Buckfast go, look to the Ontario breeders. I don't believe there are any true Buckfast queens available in the states. True Buckfasts require regular importation of semen from, and royalties paid to the Buckfast Abbey in England.
