Another great video, Cory. I particularly appreciated the discussion about the distinction between traits and stocks at the beginning and the long discussion near the end clarifying the differences between general hygienic behavior and VSH followed by the discussion concerning host resistance and it's implications for bee improvement.
Cory, awesome discussion between you and Garrett! Thanks for taking the time to put out this information for us new AI people. And you guys answered my question about a split stinger on queens.
love these long talks, I've been watching what's been happening down in Baton Rouge for years since Harbo and Harris. Our local club has been bringing in a VSH breeder queen for a few years now and getting virgin VSH queens out to the members.
@@marcinmatelski5465 central wisconsin marathon county beekeepers association after covid it's been hard to get back up and running, hopefully we can get the our conference going in the spring, maybe Cory will pay us a visit since we are trying to do our little part with VSH
Cory has crossed the Pol-line 2.2 genetics with his own High tested VSH genetics recently, I'm curious to what will result. I'd love have a mated queen from this to dedicate to a drone producer colony to flood my zone drones, I have mutt bees and catch feral swarms, I don't have any beekeepers whitin 5 miles of my bees.
