| What characteristics do you use to select your breeding stock? | |
| Survivability, mite counts and Honey production. | |
| Where is the source of your bees and what strain(s) are they? | |
| Purdue Ankle Biters crossed with Michigan Mutts. I've had 100% overwintering success with these gals for the last several years (knock on wood for this year). | |
| Where do the bees overwinter? | |
| Lexington, Michigan | |
| Do the bees spend the whole season in your home location? If not, where do they go and when, and for how long? | |
| They stay home. | |
| Do you monitor for varroa mites? How and how often? | |
| I do monitor for varroa by the alchohol wash process and observing natural mite drop throughout summer and fall. I alternatly use Formic Pro and Oxolic Vapor depending on weather and brood presence. | |
| Have your hives been inspected by an inspector? | |
| No | |
| Anything else? | |
| These nucs include 5 medium frames on cross wired wax foundation. Available in Jester EZ nuc boxes around early to mid June depending on the weather.
