Subt's are hatching!!

Dear all

We have some good news. Three of our queens have hatched out males and workers. Here's a picture of queen number 30, she's on the right with a newly hatched male next to her. Seven other colonies have good larval development. It's a bit of a waiting game to see if/how many queens are produced, all we can do is keep our fingers crossed. So far we are very please with the breeding results, over half our queens have produced eggs, and many of these have gone on to lay larvea. Some are still catching up.

Keep your fingers crossed

Till next time Nikki
