Strong, Healthy 14x12 Nucs – The Perfect Start to Beekeeping! 🐝
Our 5-frame nucs provide everything you need to start your beekeeping journey with confidence! Each small colony includes brood at all stages—eggs, larvae, and sealed brood—along with at least one frame of food stores. These bees are on 14x12 frames, making them perfect for a standard 14x12 brood box or WBC 14x12 brood box.
We take great pride in raising strong, healthy bees, and we’re sure you’ll be delighted with your nuc! Our overwintered nucs are carefully grown on fresh frames from the previous summer and nurtured through winter. We only release them when we’re completely happy that they are ready to be hived and the weather is just right. Before leaving us, all nucs are thoroughly checked, and queens are re-marked if needed.
We’re excited to help you get started with your bees—just let us know if you have any questions! 🐝✨
