Has anyone had a P. imparis colony for more than a year? I have heard that they usually die out because they the queen won't lay a second batch of eggs.

I don't know about you guys, but all of my 6 P. imparis colonies don't lay in batches; It's just a steady, constant stream of eggs that the queens lay. I'm also able to see brood in all different stages at once.

Hey goldsystem.
Long time no see. I'm interested, what's your colonies worker count, and is it single queen?

Hey TC! Ya it has been awhile, I need to start being active on here again
it's a single queen and the worker count looks to be around 40-50
