    I guess there's one way for the nucs to be headed by a 2011 queen at that time of year.

    If you produce your own queens how can they be mated and laying in time for late May/Early June? Or are you buying the queens in - in effect importing them?

    It simple really the nucs start with an over wintered queen before and then 2010 queen is removed and a new queen added
    if the weather is not so good for mating i inseminate the queen

    Ah that's interesting. After a little research I did see from the beekeeping forum that you invested in II kit. Best of luck selling your nucs.

    Mr Beeman I would love to buy a Nuc from you but I'm struggling to persuade my husband that it's OK to keep bees in a back garden......
