Beats the heck out of the dead bees we had shipped to us.
Started out as live bees in NC coming all the way across the country. Company says usually 4-6 days transit time. Shipped on a Wed, spent the Memorial Day holiday in a USPS facility somewhere, did not arrive by the following weekend so we got our bees that next Monday. A little more than 4-6 days. Well, actually for a package of bees .............. a lot more than 4-6 days. Nearly all bees dead by the time they arrived.
Glad you luck seems to be better.
