Hunter and I got a head start on caging queens this evening, and it looks like we'll have plenty of extra Carniolan queens available this week.

Our queens are mated, marked with this year's queen color, and are out of Latshaw breeder queens. We have both Italian and Carniolan queens available through the end of September.

Nature happens! Or doesn't, but they are trying like hell! The boys are eager to find some girls today. As a queen producers its always a pleasure to see lots of drones.

My son Hunter and I caged 119 queens today. He has turned into a big help when I need him.

Other people that are a big help are these outstanding beekeeping supply businesses around the state that sell our queens and supply their areas with beekeeping supplies.

Find all their information on Facebook or Google.

We are off to a great queen mating season, however we are unable to keep up with the ever growing demand for our queens. I ask that you please stop telling your friends how great they are. 🤣 We are booked up probably until the end of June. I am to the point I'm not even promising dates.

If you are a local Ohio queen producer with queens available please comment below with your contact information so customers know how to contact you for queens.

Thanks,
Dan Williams

Same ole same ole. What do you all want to see videos of here in the operation. Things are very repetitive and Im running out of things to show you all.

Cool weather makes it hard for the bees to forage. If you have recently installed packages of bees feed them.
