Ohio Queens

[pine_ridge_farms]

Limited number of queens available. Breeder queen I used on this round of queens is a queen from the Jim Tew queen project that Dana Stahlman headed up last year in cooperation with the Ohio State Beekeepers Association. These queens are open mated with my survival stock which consists of approximately 25% VSH hives, 50% Italian/Carniolian mix hives and 25% captured swarms that have overwintered and built up nicely. All the queens have been laying for at least 21 days before shipping. Everyone will receive a conformation phone call before the queens ship. Good customer service is my priority!

Queens are $20 each marked for free.

USPS express $20 (My preferred choice of Shipping)
USPS priority $8 (Buyer assumes risk when choosing this option)

If the forecast is showing mid 90's for my area I will delay shipping for the health of the queens, but shipping shouldn't be a problem most of the time.

I will not be taking any orders for this coming week July 3rd. Postal service is closed on Wednesday and I don't want shipments delayed. Too stinking hot anyways!!! July 10th is the next available ship date.

Dan sent great queens, called to let me know they were on their way. Fast shipping. You can't get this type of service from the big guys, been there and got very little service or satification. He wants customer satisfaction and return business. He's got my business.

The breeder queen I used for these queens is a queen from the JT Queen Project that Dana Stahlman headed up. Shes a open mated queen that I bought from Dana and she did really well last year so I decided to graft some off of her. I actually grafted 15 or 20 off her last year and overwintered those in Nucs and they did well. I only have a few of these left and I'm done with her for now. I have been grafting off other stock for the last 3 weeks. I'll try to get a picture of her when I'm at that bee yard next.
