You will struggle.

Most "dark bees" are mongerels these days...

not too hard managed to get hold of 6 so far and the Morphometrics seem to be very good

Did you have to pull the wings off to test them? . . . drat.

So if you found it not too hard to get 6 already why are you posting on here a request for more? Go back to your original source. Or is there a hidden agenda here?

hi
i got the 6 from this message on here no hidden agenda from my other messages on here i managed to buy 47 nucs for april/may my main agenda for this year is to produce queen lots and lots of queen but high quality queens. Im still looking for more Nucs and over the coming months all the different flavours of bees .

Hi Mike

I was encouraged to see you building up numbers of Amm and clearly someone has helped you out with pure stocks, but if you are going to be looking for all flavours of bee then how are you hoping to keep then pure?

best wishes
