These are bred from survivor stock over several generations and show a degree of varroa resistance.

They overwinter in a small cluster and are very frugal but build rapidly in the spring.

They are a good bee for a beginner as they will produce a surplus in most years and should overwinter on a single brood.

All queens are open mated and handle well under most conditions.

We select for prolific, non runny bees that produce a surplus.
