any one know anything about these queens? the auction mentions that they are artificially inseminated.

thanks

FYI
Ilooked at the ad and it only states that they are mated.

No one will $ wise sell an instumentally bred queen for $16.00

Ok now I have seen it all - A pooch a pretty girl and queens on EBay

Dadants Open – Close –Open the Frankfort Branch.

I honestly wonder who will pull the bunny out of the hat or walk through the ring of fire.

WHAT NEXT??????? Pat Robinson or Al Sharpton for president??


LET’S BE SERIOUS :)

"Our Breeder Queens are pure Minnesota Hygenic artifically inseminated." i read it wrong. the BREEDERs are AI

"Dadants Open – Close –Open the Frankfort Branch."

Ya Rob, what was up with that anyway:confused:. I thought you were doing a good job:).

[Rob Mountain]

I thought so too. I wonder when they will close it again:)

The ad says the breeders are AI. Does not say that the queens they are selling are...
I would guess that the daughters they are selling are open mated.

Let me ask them:)

[bluegrass]

Yes the queens being sold are open mated. Replied that AI queens cost 100.00 and up.

I knew the picture of the queens looked familiar. Google Glenn Apiaries and click on "Catalog of Breeder Queens - Prices"
At least they posted a link to the same site they "borrowed" the pics from.
What I don't understand is why they would offer AI queens for $100 when they would have to buy them from Glenn's for that price. Maybe they are getting a discount?

well... unless i find another source with in the next week or so, i'll be trying out a couple of the ebay queens myself. I've decided to make a couple early season nucs and i dont want to wait for them to raise a queen. Seems i've waited too long to order queens for early April shipment. But these on ebay say they'll be shipping them out on 4/8
