AMM Mated Queen

Apis mellifera mellifera (AMM) British Queen, as near native as we can find, mated & marked.     Ready to introduce into a queenless colony or to replace an aging or failing queen.

AMM Queens tend to have an overall dark coloration.    Excellent flight ability even in cold weather, they overwinter nicely with minimal stores.   Low tendency to swarm but can be runny on the comb and like to use propolis.

Normally available May-Sept (season dependant)

Your Queen should be dispatched and delivered to you within a few days (weather dependent).   Free Delivery.

Note:  you cannot start a colony with a Queen only, you need a nucleus or full colony of Bees.    Introducing a Queen into a colony is never 100% successful, we are not responsible if your queen is not accepted.
