A friend sent this link to me on FB today. It's an article about honey bees evolving to pass on the worker bees good traits in order for the colony to survive even though worker bees are sterile.

The problem is that when you are young your life it is ruined by your parents. When you are older it is ruined by your children.

here is a link of interest to beekeepers .... http://www.honeyflow.com/ ...I hope to add some of these to my hives if and when I ever move from here. No point in doing it now cuz the farmers keep planting their corn and soybean covered in the neonicatinoid pesticide powders which I firmly believe is killing the bees
