Does anyone have experience with long term banking of mated queens? I'm looking to bank mated queens overwinter to replace deads as well as sell. I'm from Alberta, Canada so looking to bank for 6 months. Any experience or thoughts on banking in an incubator without attendants? Thanks for your help.

Hey... I'm looking for a incubator and thought the eto terra looks pretty good with the glass door. Is anyone using it and would you recommend this? I like the idea of a glass door to monitor what's going on inside. http://www.exo-terra.com/en/products/incubator.php

When is the proper time to move queen cells to the incubator? As soon as they are capped or later prior to emergence?

I noticed these incubators are pretty low priced. Has anyone ever used them for queen cells and if so, how did they set it up. It does not look deep enough to hold a cell.

We need to purchase an additional QC incubator(s) Does any one out there have any recommendations on what to purchase and what to avoid. We need a box that will hold around 1000 cells at a shot. Digital control would be nice.
