Message: <blockquote data-quote="Breeder of queens Koss" data-source="post: 13811" data-attributes="member: 449">[ATTACH=full]1850[/ATTACH]Hi all.  I would like to discuss one very interesting topic.Does the color of the queen of bees affect the characteristics of the colony? Probably all over the world there are no disputes that the red Queens are the best, only beekeepers say. Others object and say that there is nothing better than the black queens ... Who is right? In my opinion, there is no evidence of color binding to any characteristics of the colony.   In any color, there are colonies that are strong, medium, and weak, aggressive and kind and color does not affect this. Imagine if you hired people only with green eyes and claimed that these were the best workers ...     What do you think on this issue?</blockquote>
