American Cordovan F1 (beekeepers, queen bees), Kiev region.

In the 2022 season, I offer fertile F1 American Cordovan queens.
For sale, queens will be bred from the daughter-tested queen of instrumental insemination Cd105(KOM). In 2021, after the end of the main honey collection, many repeat orders for daughters from this queen came from beekeepers who bought queens in the 2020 season.
The material was created on the basis of the American California line and the Italian 117 line from the CANTONI & OTTANI farm.
In the first generation, three infertile queens of the California line were inseminated with drones of the 117 line. Cd43, Cd44, Cd45 queens were obtained. 117 line increased the winter resistance of the American, and also made wintering more economical.
In the second generation, a reverse inbred combination of io on the California line was made - daughters from the Cd44(KOM) queen were inseminated with drones from her sister Cd45(KOM). The peacefulness of the California Cordovan was returned to the improved winter resistance of the newly created material.

In general, this cordovan combination was created for the cordovan test on Bordun Island, i.e. for insulation testing. But it so happened that the line showed high economic and useful indicators in many regions of Ukraine, as evidenced by numerous repeated and new orders from beekeepers who bought these queens in the 2020 season.

The flight of F1 queens takes place on the rich drone background of the Ukrainian steppe, which in turn leads to the effect of heterosis - families have increased vital energy, good wintering and higher productivity than in the original line of pure Cordovan.

Infertile queens and purebred queens of the island flight can be purchased separately.
