Note where the wing tip touches the abdomen.  A wing tip that just touches the third segment of the abdomen is a large queen.  Most wing tips pass over the third segment, thus a shorter abdomen,  this queen has s larger than normal abdomen.  The queens abdomen is made up of six segments.

I have been around bees a long time, since birth.  I am a hobbyist so my answers often reflect this fact.  I concentrate on genetics, raise my own queens by wet graft, nicot, with natural or II breeding.  I do not sell queens, I will give queens  for free but no shipping.

Not Ai, Mr. Ben, Buddy.  Open mated, but has very gentle bees.  Usually in Sept, the bees excite easily.  Not from this queen.
