One of my queens is exhibiting VERY hygienic behavior. Lots of uncapping happening and the amount of brood for this queen is way behind others colonies in the same yard. No obvious disease present. She was open mated last June and is the daughter of a pure II VSH. Different mother than my previous posts. Her colony looked great last summer and fall, and is still viable, but will probably not produce a crop.
Is the genetic information worthy of keeping via grafting, or should I write her off as too hygienic?
