I spend most of my time in the Beeworks forum based in Ontario. I've been possing the question there about Pure verses Mixed breeding. I've been breeding queens but not using race as one of the critera for selection. Perhaps I'll also pose the question here.

my humble opinion is that the traits are more important than the race.  i have dug some mutts our of walls and they are my best bees.

Kathy, how do you know that they weren't purebred bees that escaped from somewhere else?  :-P   :)
