OUR FIRST WINTER - ONE QUEEN DOWN :-(

Well, I just got the call from my husband. It's been about 6 weeks since we've been out to see our bees & several months since we've been able to crack the hives open for an inspection. It appears that our weaker hive has lost it's queen. Now we are in emergency mode to locate a vendor who can sell us a queen.

I don't have any pictures of the sad hive to share - I'll ask Jon when he gets in if he took any.

Does anyone know of any San Antonio or Austin areas beekeepers that sell organic queens? Hit me up with a comment if you do.
