With over 15 years of experience in the beekeeping industry, Apicola Azul Cielo (Blue Sky Apiary) is a trusted Chilean leader in queen bee production. It delivers high-quality mated queens with hybrid genetics, which are continuously enhanced through natural selection, ensuring exceptional performance in honey production and pollination. The queens are left in the mating nucs for extended durations to allow the queens to establish a solid brood laying pattern and then they are packaged just before shipping to minimize stress.
Each queen is carefully bred for gentleness, strong, hygienic behaviour, and high productivity, making them easy to handle and ideal for commercial beekeeping operations. Apicola Azul Cielo produces over 5,000 queens annually, proudly serving national and international markets. It has a decade of experience exporting to Europe and North America. website: https://www.apicolazulcielo.com/
