I got a local beekeeper with true buckfast. he's wanting to requeen all mine to buckfast. his are super gentle and he said they bulid up quick. but I been reading that they can get mean after a couple years. According to him his comes from a true strain that hasn't bee crossed with AHB sperm. His comes from a guy who got the drone sperm from the monk who made them, or what Im told.
Anyone have experience with these? Are they that much better then other stock? If so then is it not the standard bee to keep?:s:s:s:s
