Langstroth Correx NUC OF BEES - Due May 2027

A 5 frame nuc on Langstroth sized frames sold in a Correx Box. For use in Langstroth hives or Flow Hives With roughly about 12,000 bees and a marked and mated queen, our nucs are bound to have a great start in the Spring after you collect them. There will be minimum of 3 frames of brood and plenty of stores, everything that a colony needs to thrive. We pride ourselves on the good condition of the nucs and we believe you wont be disappointed. We are commercial bee farmers with decades of beekeeping experience between us including running our own queen rearing operation. Our overwintered nucs (marked due April/May) and summertime nucs (marked due June) are built up on new frames with fresh foundation and a nice young queen. We nurture them as they build up and are regularly checked for signs of disease or problems to ensure the colony is healthy and the queen is of good stock. They are also checked regularly by the bee inspectors from the National Bee Unit Only then, once we are 100% happy with them, do we prepare them for collection by our customers, or via local delivery.
