B20(AME)

[German]

Die B20(AME) stand 2017 als Drohnenlinie auf der Belegstelle Taubensuhl und war dort - wie auch im Frühjahr 2018 - das beste Volk. Sie ist durch nichts aus der Ruhe zu bringen, extrem sanftmütig und kann das ganze Jahr ohne Schleier bearbeitet werden. Nie hat sie eine Schwarmzelle angeblasen. Obwohl diese Linie nicht so extrem brutfreudig ist, baut sie sehr starke VÃ¶lker auf und entwickelt im Laufe des Jahres rasant weiter. Die B20 ist eine alte Buckfast mit langer Tradition. Ein absolutes must have für alle Buckfast Liebhaber.
