In the past, we have exclusively bred from the best drone colonies of the previous year at the Friedrichskoog land mating station. This procedure has proven successful and we will continue to do so in the future. Once in 2019, however, we also bred from queens with a particularly pronounced hygienic behaviour, which were not at the mating station. In 2022, we will again have enough queens at our disposal that were at the breeding station in the previous year and from which we will then breed again. The path to our breeding mothers takes place in close cooperation with the operators of the Friedrichskoog mating station:<\/p>\n
Bmix(Frkg)25<\/strong><\/p>\n The 2026 drone line from the Friedrichskoog breeding station is designated as Bmix and is based on material from the VSB-Project Buckfast-Nordost (BNO).
