it was a great article The bee community has come a way in the last year or two regarding nutrition but still such a long ways too go.
One thing that seems to be lacking in knowledge is the Vit and Minerals needs of the bees.
I know i can say and probably many others that you have been a lot of help keith in the nutrition realm of bees.

[QUOTE=Keith Jarrett keep useing that cheap tosted soy, there are a couple other reasons for not useing cheap soy products in your sub.

10 4 on that, been there done that.
I know people say that the toasted soy is fine but i think there are others who tested it and say other wise (steve taber was one). So why risk it when it doesnt work. oh yea its cheap

true by why use it if there is a chance? use better ingredients,
I have read some studys about soy in patties (wish i could remember where i saw them) that if the bees are fed a diet containing a lot of soy the queen will lay eggs but they will not hatch, kinda works the same as a birth control pill.
if any one knows of this study i would love to see it again.

HUMMMMMMMM.
4% diluted with the rest of the pollen supplement ingredients should be minimal.
