5 Frame Medium Michigan Overwintered Nuc with 2022 Marked Queen

5 Frame Medium Michigan Overwintered Nuc with 2022 Marked Queen

$200.00Price

SOLD OUT FOR 2023

 

Nucleus hives (Nucs) are perfect for beginning beekeepers and for replacing winter losses. They have an established laying queen that survived winter and is now building up the nest for the coming spring nectar flow. Nucs each include 5 medium frames containing brood, honey, pollen and bees with some room for the queen to continue laying.

 

Our queens were grafted in 2022 from either one of our best Carniolan queens, our New River Carnica Breeder Queen or our VSH Carniolian Queen from VP Queens.  We then flood the mating area with drones from our best performing production hives, based on honey production, temperament, disease and mite resistance, and great brood laying patterns.

  • Picking Up Nucs: Where and When

    Bees are available for pickup at 10340 Parshall Rd, Fenton MI, 48430. 

     

    I will contact you to set a pickup date and time one week prior to when the Nucs will be ready. I will then send you an email confirming the pickup date, time, and any payment that will be due at pickup.

    Please be prepared to:

    1. Interact in the “bee yard.” You are responsible for your own safety.
    2. Secure your Nuc box(es) in your vehicle so they don’t tip over. We recommend bringing a Nuc Mesh Bag if you plan to transport your bees inside your vehicle. 

    We recommend you transfer the Nucs to their new hives within 24 hours of pickup.
