Description
Queen Rearing Simplified is one of the most popular queen rearing books of all time written by a man who raised a lot of good queens. It is no longer in print, so I am trying to keep Jay's wisdom alive here. There are many queen breeding books by scientists or small-scale breeders, but this is by a beekeeper who raised thousands of queens every year. I think what he has to say is much more applicable to practical queen rearing. This is a reprint so the old pictures are not the highest quality.

Person
Jay Smith was an active writer in the bee journals during his day and wrote two of the most loved and used of the queen rearing books. Both are still being followed by many today. He is most famous for this book, Queen Rearing Simplified, but Better Queens is the culmination of his work in queen rearing.
