Title: Caucasian bees.
Post by: OPAVP on February 16, 2011, 06:08:49 PM
Good day mates,

Do any one of you use Caucasian bees?

Can you get me the names of some Queen breeders that Caucasians?

Thanks for your help.

G'day OPAVP,

I had one caucasian hive for a period - they're great for cold weather conditions and are generally a peacful bee (from my experience) a guy by the name of John Covey here in Australia breeds them - i don't have his details but Google should be able to help - if you're interested in a really good Carniolan then Charlie & Brenda Casido are the way to go! Australian Queen Bee line is their company... sorry i couldn't give you much more than that. Can you import Australian Bees in to Canada?
