Bill's Bees: VSH-Italian Queen Bees (Marked)

Bill's Bees: VSH-Italian Queen Bees (Marked)

  • $ 6500


VSH-Italian Queen Bees (marked) are ideal bees for an urban setting, for hobby beekeepers, or commercial beekeepers needing to re-queen. They come in a screened cage with attendants, are mated, and ready to lay eggs. Italian bees have been a favorite among beekeepers since they were first introduced to the New World in the 1850’s. They are known to be gentle of temperament, easy to work with, readily build comb, diligent housekeepers which helps them with control of wax moth and resistance to diseases, very prolific, wonderful foragers, excellent honey producers, with less tendency to swarm.  




Queen bee sales are seasonal typically late March-October each year.  If placed before breeding season your order will be fulfilled as soon as the queen mating season begins at the end of march.  

Once you purchase your queen(s), please call (818) 312-1691 so we can schedule a pick up date, time, and location.

RESTOCKING CHARGE: There is a $50 restocking fee for packages, nucs, complete hives, and queens not picked up or cancelled orders. Please call or email Bill with your order number if you need to cancel. Orders that have not been picked up, cancelled nor otherwise communicated intent within 24hrs of pick up date will be considered a "no show" and automatically cancels the order which is no longer eligible for refund.
