Italian queens have good honey production, gentle nature, and strong brood-rearing viabilities. They also possess the resilience to survive the winter months in a healthy condition while maintaining a good weight, ensuring their ability to bounce back quickly during spring. Italian bee package from Beepackages.com includes approximately 3 lb of bees and a laying, open-air mated Italian queen.
