Production queens are young queens bred in the current year and open mated (randomly mated). Dame is well known, but mated with naturally present drones, but we do not neglect this factor either.

The breeding apiary is located in the valley of the Sava river, where we try really hard to maintain the top genetics of drones of the Apis mellifera carnica subspecies. By using the latest knowledge of how queens and drones behave in nature in relation to our geographical specifics, we strive for better results.
Production MS Carnica Queens are available for purchase from mid-May to the end of July.
