 Carnolian Queen Bee. These Queen bees are a very gentle and prolific dark/black bee variety. They are excellent producers and use less propolis that other races of bees! This is great for comb honey production as the combs/frames have little propolis on them and have nice white capping's making a very beautiful product! They are raised from select breeder queens and drones that are both Carnolian and the resulting queens and workers are pure Carnolian. They are open mated or I.I. available |

 Quality Laying Italian Queen Bee. These Queen bees are a very gentle/survivor stock of my Ohio hives that are excellent producers that have shown mite resistance naturally and are NOT chemically treated for mites as genetic selection is a better option than chemicals in the long run as it will not select for stronger mites, but stronger and resistant bees. |

 Minnesota Hygienic Italian Bees. This strain of Italian bees were developed from the research by Dr. Marla Spivak at the University of Minnesota. These bees are bred to have a high degree of hygienic behavior, known to be effective against diseases of the brood such as American foulbrood and chalkbrood. This trait is thought to be two behaviors acting in synergy, the uncapping of diseased cells, then the removal of the pathogen along with the pupae, effectively disrupting the disease lifecycle. |
