Queens that mate with multiple drones do better than queens that don't.

Brendhan, great subject line, that really caught my eye ;) :)
When I read such research about the bees, I boggles my mind. These little creatures have the most interesting and deep style of life. What goes on in their colonies is beyond the wildest imagination, yeah!!! I think that is why I love to beekeep so much, they are little mysteries, just waiting to unfold. Have a wonderful and beautiful day, me too, I think our sun is gonna shine again this day. Cindi
