PRICE LIST
Overwintered Nuc
These overwintered bees will be hived at the end of the season as a 5/6-frame strong nuc. When you buy an overwintered Poly Nuc you will receive a strong colony of bees with a 2020 Mated Queen.
A couple of the benefits of choosing an overwintered nuc is that they will be.. TREATED FOR VAROA and will have survived a whole winter, meaning they are more likely to survive the next.
Overwintered Hives
The overwintered hives are overwintered the exact same, in a 6 frame Poly Nuc. However, when they are sold to you they will be moved into a national hive box.
The hive box includes..
Waterproof lid
Crown Board
Weatherproof national brood box
Floor
Two clamps on either side
5 extra frames to fill the box
WHAT’S INSIDE:
Bees on 6/7 frames (out of 11)
Bees treated for varroa
