    As long as they're national and black you'd get rid of them but there's a huge amount of time wasting clowns out there so I personally would never sell bees

    I'd a guy who took one from me last year. He rang up about 2 weeks later, after splitting them between two brood boxes, asking if I had any queens to sell to for the split hive. I felt sorry for my bees.

    Had to ignore his calls and texts for nucs this year.
