Any opinions of VP Queens?

**BeeCurious** · 12-19-2009, 08:15 AM

I would like to hear from members who have experience with "VP Queens" .

I'd also be interested in knowing how the VP queen-daughters performed.

The only person I know of is Jim Fischer, and he speaks highly of them.

I was looking for additional references. Adam F. Is an active member of this forum.

Jeez.. just because noone replied in 2 hours?
I think you can search and see that folks are very happy with them myself included. They have spoken several times at EAS and are featured in a few articles in ABJ. For for those in the know, one of these queens live at a very special home which speaks for itself.

I have a couple of 2nd year daughters or grandaughterse from 2008 queens that are strong performers and essentially mite free, (although I do use powdered sugar dusting as prevention).
