Oh wow! I really don't trust myself not to fumble and drop a frame. I consider mine girls pretty even tempered, but not so much as yours, Lesa. I know they can vary quite a bit, not only by breed, but even by strain. I'm also a little bit allergic to them. One sting doesn't cause me much trouble, but I don't want to take my chances.lesa said:Often we work them, with no smoke, or veil.
