Transferring a Nucleus to a Full-Sized Hive

From early Spring each year…We can sometimes offer a limited number of 5-frame nucleus starter colonies (Nuc’s). Each colony will consist of 5x British Standard “National” (DN4) frames housed in a temporary plastic travel box (Corex Box). They will include a Young “Local” Laying & Marked Queen Bee with ample numbers of colony Bees…and frames of brood in different stages of development… and at least one frame of food.

Nuc’s are the perfect choice for the beginner and also for existing beekeepers wishing to increase their stocks. You will require a Full-Sized Hive to transfer your Nucleus colony…so bear this in mind before purchasing a Nuc.

Our Nuc’s are carefully selected from our own breeding stock, with particular emphasis on good temperament, good honey production, low swarming rate & good over-wintering abilities.                

Please Note…Our Nuc’s Cannot Be Reserved In Advance! …They are advertised when (and only when) a colony is ready. Payment is strictly Cash on Collection.

All our Nuc’s are strictly for COLLECTION ONLY from North Shropshire SY12 Postcode…
