That's cool.  It sure went by fast.  What did you use for mating nucs?

Exciting ins't it?  Enjoy!  First times are the best!  Yet I still get a thrill every time I go into a nuc and find fresh hatched queen that I grafted way back when she was just the tineyest bit of a "C" shaped larve.  Enjoying the wonders of nature is the best benifit of beekeeping.
