Field Bee
I’ve got a colony of pretty defensive bees that I’m thinking of re queening…possibly with a buckfast queen.
I’ve heard that introductions often fail and they kill the queen if the colony is very different in appearance to the queen you give them. I don’t know the genetics of the bees I’ve got but they’re pretty dark coloured. Am I likely to have success introcing a buckfast queen to them?
