Queens that mate with multiple drones do better than queens that don't.

Brendhan, great subject line, that really caught my eye  ;) :)

When I read such research about the bees, I boggles my mind.  These little creatures have the most interesting and deep style of life.  What goes on in their colonies is beyond the wildest imagination, yeah!!!  I think that is why I love to beekeep so much, they are little mysteries, just waiting to unfold.  Have a wonderful and beautiful day, me too, I think our sun is gonna shine again this day.  Cindi
There are strange things done in the midnight sun by the men who moil for gold.  The Arctic trails have their secret tales that would make your blood run cold.  The Northern Lights have seen queer sights, but the queerest they ever did see, what the night on the marge of Lake Lebarge, I cremated Sam McGee.  Robert Service
