Five Frame Nucs for sale
We are currently sold out of nucs. However, more nucs may be available in August 2010. Please call us or email to be placed on our waiting list. Since there's a high demand for bees, we are not guaranteeing the availability of these nucs and aren't taking any down payments for them at this point. However, if you are on our waiting list, we will contact you if they become available.
Our five frame nucs will be sold this summer for $125, sold with 5 frames of bees and brood in a cardboard bee box. There will be no frame exchange, all bees will be available for pickup in their own temporary box.
We have some very strong bees right now with excellent brood patterns. What's important about a brood pattern? The ideal brood pattern is one that is solid. If the queen is not laying in every cell and the brood pattern is spotty, it's a sign that something is not right. There could be disease or the queen could be failing. We strive to raise queens that are prolific layers with good brood patterns, because it's an excellent indication to how the hive will do.
