For Sale: Queens—We will have a limited number of queens for sale during April. Most of these will be Carniolans from Koehnens. We are getting one lot of hygenic queens from Mark Sundberg. Prices are still unknown. I’m guessing they will be in the $19 to $20 range. There is no shipping on these queens. It is pickup only in Lynnville. We will ship queens from our own production but those won’t be available until June.

For Sale: Package bees. In addition to our normal 2# and 3# pkgs., we are also offering a 4# pkg. with two queens. I can give a decent price on the 4# unit. You need some knowhow to handle the 4#. You will be splitting the bees into two units. We will also be having a drop in either Hamilton, IL or Donnelson, IA. Call me if you have questions.
