  The British Mix is a Queen Grafted from one of a number of random hives that have over wintered well or produced a solid laying pattern and to be found gentle and productive and suited to the area. I have not tracked mating or parentage and the colonies change year to year I just find them to be a pleasant bee to work with.  BRITISH MIX IS JUST A TITLE NOT A SPECIAL OR DESIGNER QUEEN
