Title: Need a new Queen! Help!!
Post by: theriverhawk on September 07, 2009, 09:40:47 PM
Anyone know of a queen breeder in the south that still has queens? I killed a queen in one of my nucs today. It's too late to let them raise their own and I really don't want to combine. I've called the place that I got queens from recently and one other place. All out. These were Minn. Hyg but at this point, I really don't care what breed she is. Any help is GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks gang...

Rossman and Hardeman had queens a couple of weeks ago. Both are in Georgia.

Try Mike's Bees and Honey

www.mikesbeesandhoney.com

He produces a wide variety of strains and is great to do business with.  He still had queens last week.

Michael Bush is in Nebraska,  but I overheard him say he had a few feral queens for sale . Just Google Michael Bush you'll find him all over the web.

I've been happy with my Walter Kelly queen and he had queens last month - don't know about now.  He sends them regular mail so only $25 for an Italian queen.
