I bought eight 3 Pound packages from them in April 8 this year. I kept five of those packages, three went to beekeeper friends of mine. Out of the eight packages two had drone laying queens (one of mine and one of my friend's packages). I just heard from my other beekeeping friend that his queen from that package has filled a total of three frames of brood, after being installed on ten deep frames of drawn foundation on April 9th. He is looking to buy a queen and requeen that hive. So that makes a rate of 25% for drone laying queens or 37.5% for drone layers and a weak queen combined.
I will take my business elsewhere next spring.
