Looking to Buy a Local Queen - North East London

[davidharradine]

Hello everyone

I need to re-queen one of my colonies (an emergency queen that hasn't mated properly and is barely laying) and I'd like to get a replacement from someone reasonably local, rather than going down the mail order route.

I'm based in Hackney, NE London. If you're a local-ish queen rearer with queens available now, please get in touch.

Thanks
David

Can't resist it...

are you looking for a Pearly Queen?

sorry!

David,

Try googling Oakfield Honey Farm. Ged Marshall is in Buckinghamshire; not exactly local, but the best I can come up with. I've had queens from there occasionally and they're well-behaved and productive.

If you contact North London BKA they may have a source.

Have they opened their doors to new members yet?

Eric.

I and other LBKA members have queens... but is that local enough? We are Sarf London.

Hi Polyanwood - I can travel sarf! I really just want to avoid going down the mail order route.

Is this forum the best way to talk detail? If you'd prefer to email me I'm [email protected]

Thanks
David
