UK-Mated Carniolan Queen — FAQ
Quick answers about strain, shipping, handling and introduction.
What is a Carniolan queen and why choose UK-mated?
A Carniolan queen (Apis mellifera carnica) is known for calm temperament, rapid spring build-up, and efficient foraging. UK-mated queens are selected from proven lines and open-mated here, so they’re adapted to the British climate and management styles.
How are queens supplied and shipped?
Each queen is supplied in a ventilated cage with attendants and fondant. We offer collection in Dorset or nationwide delivery via Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed by 1 pm. Orders are usually dispatched within 1–2 working days with tracking.
Are Carniolans suitable for beginners?
Yes. Carniolans are generally gentle and easy to handle, making them a great choice for beginners and experienced beekeepers alike.
How do I introduce the queen?
Make sure the colony is queenless, then return in 8 days and remove all queen cells. Place the new queen (in her cage with attendants) between two frames of brood. After 24 hours, return and carefully pop the tab to expose the fondant. Replace the cage between the brood frames and leave undisturbed for 7 days before checking for acceptance and eggs.
When should she start laying?
Most queens begin laying within 7–10 days after release, depending on weather and colony strength. Look for a steady pattern of eggs and young larvae on subsequent inspections.

Husbands Favorite!
Scent: Bourbon & Oak, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This brand is my husband's favorite! He uses the shampoo/conditioner and the body wash. He says it lathers and suds up pretty well. The smell is great and lasts a good while. The only thing is he wishes it came in a bigger bottle.

Next Level "Hotel" smells
Scent: Bourbon & Oak, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have been searching for a shampoo that not only leaves my hair feeling clean, but also smells great. Cremo has frequently checked a lot of boxes, and this shampoo is no exception.I adore the bourbon and oak scent. Despite giving some hotel shampoo vibes, it smells great once in the air, and I feel good showering with it. It leaves my hair feeling clean and no oily, but still soft. I have thicker hair, but this works in easily. Bottle came perfect, no leaks! Only complaint is I would like a larger bottle with a pump to user easier in the shower!

incredible.
Format: Mass Market Paperback, Format: Mass Market Paperback
i want to recommend this book to every woman i know - but unfortunately, i know soooo many will choose to be offended by its content. it will either strengthen your femininity & rattle your feminist side (i should note that i mean the more extreme, modern meaning), or solidify your feminist ideologies altogether. for me, it was the former. & i'm so grateful. i will say, i think many of the reviews claiming this book is "against women" or "spreading harmful messages" are either taking quotes out of context or the point has gone over their heads completely.
elisabeth has made such incredible points about men & women being equally valuable, but simply having different roles in life. she also exaggerated that mature men understand that they have their role not from earning it, but from assignment & are called to love well. so much so, to lay down their lives. this is no way made me feel "less than" or "oppressed" or "victimized". i would say it did the opposite. it made me proud to be a woman.
personally, i think this book is incredible & i plan to read it several times in the future. men & women are equal in value, but we were not created for the same roles. & that's *more* than okay, it's beautiful. & God's will is the safest place to be. since i tend to have a hard time articulating my thoughts, here are some bullet points.
women are a gift. we were quite literally created to be a helpmeet. we are needed. we are necessary. we have a divine purpose. "i don't want anyone treating me as a person rather than as a woman".
a point made that i find interesting - we often see women on a mission to prove "we can do everything a man can do!" (which we cannot), yet, we don't often, if at all, see men trying to prove they can do everything a woman can do (which they can't).
people often assume that women embracing the more feminine roles is because of the western societal standards. but if that were true, why do we have yet to discover a successful matriarchal society? globally - villages, tribes, etc. have men as the hunters & warriors, & women as the caregivers & nurturers. is it because we were wired that way?
freedom lies in God's will, not rebelling against it. "by being a jellyfish, the jellyfish glorifies its Creator, for by being a jellyfish it fulfills its Creator's command." just like a sailboat sails most beautifully when it sails with the wind, not against it. it's fulfilling it's purpose.
"if she was going to make her way in a man's world, she had to be a lady." LOVE THIS QUOTE SO MUCH.
"you did in fact marry only a sinner, & so did he. it is grace you both need."
"snoring is the sweetest sound in the world. ask any widow." this hit my soul. hard.
"you can't find the meaning of a rose by pulling it apart." was such a fabulous quote in regards to not digging too deeply into such trivial things.
