Spring honey bee nuc 2024 in High Wycombe

£190

These Nucs are the perfect way to start your beekeeping journey, or to increase your apiary size. The 5 frame nucs will be headed up by one of our carefully selected and bred Buckfast queen bees. She will be marked Green (2024) and unclipped. In the nuc will be around 1.5 frames of stores and the remaining will be brood in all stages (eggs, Larvae, capped brood). We breed our queens to be highly productive, calm on the comb, hygienic and have a low swarm tendency.
At the start of the year we will carefully inspect, observe and examine our hives to select our breeder queen for the year. The grafts are then moved into a hive full of honey, pollen and nurse bees, to produce the best queen cells. Once ready they are moved to our queen mating yard where they will mate
and start to lay. Once we have observed a good laying pattern, and only then, will they be used in our nucs.

These are national nucs on DN4 (self spacing) frames. All hives are routinely treated for varroa mites. Bees will be provided in a correx box and are able to be posted for additional cost (£20)
