AR: if you want an II Cordovan queen, I'll give you one this spring, 2018. You will have to drive to Mountain Home, not to far really. Only one person I know of besides yours truly that generates II Cordovan, Dr. Latshaw, bee geneticist. His cordovan queens run about $550.00, minimum 5 order.
I do not sell my queens, I do give them to beeks, neighbors. I don't ship, period.
Cost is zero, zip, nada nada.
I raise bees as a hobby, not really interested in the $$$. I have both a Latshaw and a Loc device. Of course I raise natural queens, Italian and Cordovan also, they are free too.
Blessings
