Dorset-mated queens
Our designated UK-mated queens complete mating in Dorset from selected breeding lines. They are available when weather permits successful mating and assessment.
Imported early-season queens
Early-season imported Buckfast queens are mated abroad and provide an alternative before UK mating conditions are reliable.
Choose based on your colony, dispatch timing and the origin stated on each product, not promises of guaranteed performance.
How to Choose and Introduce a Mated Queen
1. Choose
Compare breed, mating origin and available dispatch dates. Check the individual queen product before ordering.
2. Prepare
Confirm the colony is queenless, check for competing queen cells, and make sure stores are adequate.
3. Introduce carefully. Use a suitable slow-release method and avoid unnecessary disturbance. Check the queenless-colony guide if you are unsure.
