We have been feeding our bees Bee-Pro in the spring for a few years.  =
Bee-Pro is supposed to be a high protein pollen substitute.  It is made =
by Mann Lakes bee supplies.  They claim that it promotes brood rearing =
prior to the availablilty of natural pollen.  I know that it keeps the =
bees out of the farmers' cattle and pig feed.  We don't get anymore =
calls from farmers, upset about the bees in the spring.
 
I'd like to know if anyong using this product has seen a noticable =
increase in brood rearing that can be atributed to Bee-Pro.  Has anyone =
studied the contents of the product to see how the proteins compair to =
real pollens.  Any comments would be appreciated.
