Hi I know this may have been on here on the forum before but can't seem to find it, the question is do Pound Jars sell better than 12oz. Thanks in advance
I agree I have had expensive wellies and whether its me but they have never last any longer than the cheaper ones. Also its not as heart breaking when you get a split in them.
I use these, they have lasted longer than anything else I have used. I just cut the end of the index finger and thumb if I need to pick up a queen. They clean up well as well with washing soda.

Hi just a question do queens bred from carnie queens have the same sort of temperament or are they defensive. Not asking to start an argument just would like everyone's opinion who have used them and bred from them.
Luckily it didn't happen must have been able to squeeze through. I must admit had thought about a blower if it happened. was going to use my workshop hoover with the pipe fitted on the exit pipe. Thanks for the reply
