Buckfast bee queens are known for their high performance on various criteria. 

Historically, Buckfast was developed through extensive selective breeding. With the time, this strain has evolved from a simple hybrid to a distinguished race with stabilised genetics.

Buckfast are known for their exceptional gentleness. Their calmness not only makes them a joy to manage but also reduces the need for intensive labor during handling, a trait particularly valued in large beekeeping operations.

The Buckfast bees start the season gradually but quickly expanding as the weather and consistent pollen flows stabilise. This characteristic ensures robust colony growth and sustained honey production.

A defining trait of the Buckfast bee is its low tendency to swarm, significantly reducing the labor and costs associated with managing swarming in commercial beekeeping settings. This feature, along with their efficient use of honey stores, makes them ideal for areas with harsh winters where resources must be carefully conserved.

Moreover, their hygienic behaviors are critical in disease prevention, particularly their Varroa Sensitive Hygiene (VSH) capability. This trait enables them to detect and eliminate bee pupae infested by the parasitic Varroa destructor mite, contributing to the overall health and longevity of the colony.

Buckfast bee queens are the perfect choice for beekeepers looking for a durable, low-maintenance breed that promises high yields and minimal upkeep. They are truly among the best bees in the world, ready to enhance your beekeeping success.

The F1 queens are suitable for honey, bee pollen, bee bread production. Not suitable for further breeding of queens.
