Italian Queen Cells

Italian Queens Cells – Local Pick-Up Only

Elevate your apiary with our current season’s Virgin Italian Queen Cells. Known for their gentle temperament, exceptional brood rearing, and strong foraging capabilities, these Italian queens are the gold standard for both hobbyist and professional beekeepers. Each queen is locally raised and ready to lead your hive to a productive season.

When buying a queen cell, care is essential.   They need to be properly introduced to a queenless colony.   It can take 7-9 days for them to emerge, and then another 101-15 days to mate and start laying eggs.   Buyer assumes responsibility for the queen’s mating and for her safe return to the colony.
