Picked up two 3-pounders with 'Russian' queens yesterday in Clarkson @ Kelly's

Installed today

Time will tell if its a good move or an expensive experiment....

congrats sk!

just a comment; packages of russians with russian queens sold from kelly's are hybrids, not pure (only sold by the rhba). they will have some russian genetics in them but not like what one would purchase from a certified member in the rhba association. 

good luck with the packages and keep us posted on the progress!
