Hey. Could anyone get some records on the importation of bees to the Russian Far East and imports to the Baton Rouge, Louisiana not too long ago for beeks in the US? And how the Baton Rouge (is that even spelled right?) people bred them; Mixed different stocks or kept them separate to make...

Hey guys, I'm getting my first Russians from Dwight Porter this year after having Italians. I would like to hear some feed back on your keeping experience with Russians and how they compare to your other breeds. I know all the facts on the Russians, so I just want some experiences. Looking...

I am a new beekeeper. I have two hives that I've setup. I installed package bees about two weeks ago. I just did my one-week-after-queen-release hive checks (actually 9 days). I have a couple of quick questions from what I saw: Hive #1: In the first hive, the hive is a little weak, I...
