Marked Italian Queen Bee-PICKUP- in ILLINOIS

Queens will be available for pickup Thursday (5/15) in the afternoon.

Queens are in stock now! However, the inventory fluctuates, so please call or email before coming to pick up, to ensure we have availability.

We've been using and selling these quality Georgia-bred queens for years now, and we love them! They are Italian, known for gentleness and honey production. These queens come in a 3-hole cage, as pictured. 

Each queen is carefully marked with white paint for enhanced visibility within the hive.

While the international queen marking color for 2025 is blue, we have chosen white for contrast and visibility. Rest assured, these are newly mated queens from 2025.

We normally have queen bees in stock from late April through mid to late June. Please contact us before coming to pick up your queen, as we do sometimes have brief gaps in our queen bee stock.

Queen bees are not shipped, they are available for pickup only at Minonk, IL location.
