That'll be Hivemaker. Just google exmoor bees

I might have to give him a call myself

Are you sure it's not some other factor like a change in the weather or robbing?

Mine were horrible when I visited today, but last week they were gentle and calm.

Hivemaker's Queens and their progeny are great, worth every penny. Also very productive.

Hivemaker for me too. Having kept bees for 37 years and having purchased many queens I can honestly say none come close to the qualities possessed by these queens of which their gentleness is only one.

Yep first time I inspected them I thought they were dead they were so calm, I never thought bees could be like that

 

[Erichalfbee]

Yes, a couple from there next year, methinks.
