Grafting room pics. Tomorrow may be our last day of grafting for the year. Unless, I think we’ll have a couple of rain out days in the next 12 days. Then, Tuesday will be the last day.

Queen Catching ran anywhere from 87-97% this round. Big beautiful queens.

I’m pretty sure we will have extra nucs available in Texas, but it will be around April 20-25. We are sold out on queens and tight on the first week of nucs going out.

Carniolan breeder queens from my friend Megan Mahoney. Very gentle. Good honey producers, great for overwintering. Very gentle. They needed no smoke to transfer into a larger single despite a 2 hour truck ride from the Gulf Coast back up to the piney woods of Newton, Tx.

Italian looking breeder we selected out of our stock. Nice tempered despite the cold day. It was about 58 deg. We opened the lid, tapped the top bars and kicked the sides of the hive without smoke.

We are sold out of Queens for the 2026 season. We are also sold out of Nucs at this point for the 2026 season. You can check back in late March early April to see if we end up with any extra Nucs to get rid of.

It too bad for temps in the low 40s and a sharp NW wind.
