- where is the QUEEN from? Her genes will be producing all the future bees! (some people split their local hives, but put commercially bred queens into the splits)<br style="" class="" clear="none">
- have the bees come from stock that is treated? e.g. medicated with antibiotics and/or some form of pesticide (hard or soft chemical mite control)?</span><br style="" class="" clear="none">
