has anyone ever had a hive of aggressive carniolans? i've got a hive that has been really nasty a couple of times and i didn't think that was typical. they're really runny some times. they are the result of an august supersedure of a queen i bought in late july. i'm starting to wonder about them. the beekeeper i got the queens from is an interstate beekeeper and his bees are mutts. i only have one of the four left. this hive superseded, another hive starved, another hive superseded recently and the one survivor looks like the old pure italians we ran in the 80's and the bees are gentle.
the queen in question is nearly solid black, the workers look like carnis and at times they may only head butt a little but at other times they get runny and light me up.
