Asking for Recomendations
One tip to find a good breeder when starting is to ask for recommendations. Where could a person go ask for these recommendations? Beekeepers clubs or associations are places where a person could look for direction when it comes to looking for a breeder. What if you have several breeders to choose from?
Looking for More Experienced Breeders
Secondly, you might not want to get bees that are not suited for your hobby or activity. One way to go about finding a good breeder is to look for the more experienced breeders. Hypothetically, between a breeder that has 3 years of experience and one that has 5, the latter appears to be the one that has been in the game longer. What if there is a problem with the bees?
Ask if Bees’ Replacement Will be Possible
This last tip is about avoiding being stuck with a purchase of bees that finally does not benefit you greatly for this hobby. In fact, ask the breeder if the bees will be replaced if there is a significant mortality during the shipping. Skipping a breeder that does not reply positively to the preceding question is advisable.
