I ordered 10 queens from Purvis Brothers last summer to make splits. 1 was DOA and one was a drone layer. Lost 2 more this winter to starveouts.
Went thru the rest yesterday and they look great. Very gentle and great brood patterns. They are laying up a storm.
I plan on using them this spring for my queen mothers to graft from and open mate them to my best producing local stock. Hope to get some mite resistance built up so we don't have to treat.
Hate to see them go out of business.
