Our latest batch of UK mated queens has arrived. These ones are marked silver, and that's to show that they're Jolanta queens. Got some really nice looking queens in there. As you can see, they're all marked silver, all in a really, really healthy condition. They come in a ventilated cardboard box, and then these are packaged up into ventilated packaging, sent out to our customers. They're only with us here for a couple of hours before we package them up, send them out to our customers, and they go on an overnight 24-hour service with Royal Mail. Really easy sending bees in the post. We send out loads and loads of bees each year.
