Inventory posted will ship within 48 hrs. DO NOT order if you're not ready to receive the queens within 2-3 days. These virgin queens are daughters from our top instrumentally inseminated breeder queens. The breeders have proven themselves to be productive and thrive in an untreated apiary, and have top scores on Harbo's VSH assay (zero % mite reproduction). Please read my blog post on introducing virgin queens so you are familiar before ordering. Contact us with any introduction questions. Thanks!
