Virgin Queen Bees
Are you looking to diversify your stock with new genetics, or have a special hive with excellent qualities and want to breed it with new queen stock? try my Virgin Queens! These queens are VIRGIN QUEENS and are available in all of my mated queen types. They will need to be mated with your stock either Instrumentally, or Open mated as queen bees naturally mate with the local drone population. They need to be introduced the same way, like Mated queens, but i have had good success when i wait 2 days before I open the candy so the bees can release the queen into the hive, so she can be accepted and then mated. After mating they usually begin to lay eggs within a week.
