Queen Bees for Sale in Melbourne
The Southern Cross Bees believes that all beekeepers must understand the importance of the Queen Bee and its effect on the hive. A “Queen Bee” is the term given to the dominant female in a honey bee colony or hive since she generally lays the eggs for the bulk of the worker bees. Every beekeeper must understand the role of the queen and how she interacts with the workers and drones. They can then use this information to monitor the colony’s health and identify problems as they arise.
There are several reasons why Southern Cross Bees choose the Italian Queen Bee. These bees are gentle and simple to deal with unless they sense any potential dangers. Most beekeepers don’t even bother with a veil while they’re working in the apiary. The Italian bees are renowned for their high levels of honey and brood production, two of the finest qualities a bee colony can have. That’s why they’re perfect for honeybee bundles, making propolis, and making royal jelly. Finally, the Italian bees show remarkable versatility not just in Europe but all over the world.
