Queen FAQ and Terms and Conditions
We DO NOT put attendants in the cages. You MUST give your queens food, water, and each cage should be thoroughly covered with nurse bees every day or they will die unless installing them the same day you pick them up!!! If you are not installing your queens on the day you receive them they must be banked! We do not guarantee that a queen(s) will be successfully introduced to or will be accepted by your hive. Once the queens leave our care they are your responsibility. We recommend having your queenless splits made the day before you receive your queens and then installing them immediately.
While we strive to ship all queens as soon as possible we are sometimes at the mercy of the weather. Please be understanding that your order can be delayed if the weather is too poor to cage the queens. A signature will be required upon delivery so please be home and keep an eye on your tracking number.
Although we work very hard to make sure you receive only the highest quality queens, losing queens through the shipping process can happen. To mitigate any losses during shipping, we give 1 free queen for every 20 queens shipped. If ordering less than 20 queens, no additional queens will be added. We are not responsible for queens lost during the shipping process.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
