Nah they're too mental. This lot are exceptionally fiesty so a winter shrink or snuff will work for me given thst they're well away from habitation. My pens are fine generally - I think it's just this lot are rather "vigorous" and have given her a polish lol.I would try to requeen now as easy to buy queens at present. Would have to wait until April/May in the new year. Overwinter nucs can be expensive. Also use a good marker in future. I use TOMA and find them far better than POSCA.
