Capt44,
How do you pick the tender bees? Do you graft all the cells on the same day, or stagger them or something? Looks like you need a bunch of hives to provide tender bees for a large number of new queens. It looks to me like queen breeding would be very interesting, so a friend and I are just thinking about trying it. What do you suggest as a guide for starting, since nobody we know in Dallas is doing it? We are getting real tired of paying for a lot of failures, though, and we figure we can produce failures as well as the people we've been paying for the honor.
