My intent for this book is a step by step of how I currently do queen breeding and queen rearing. This method is the one I find most reliable in getting cells started, finished and mated. This is not to say that other methods don't work. A lot of what works and doesn't, has to do with circumstances. If there is a flow, you don't seem to be able to do anything wrong. If there is a dearth, things become quite difficult and sometimes you don't seem to be able to do anything right. The reason I do this method is that it has the most success, in my experience, under adverse conditions as well as good conditions and from Spring until Fall.
