Nucleus Hive ("Nuc")
We will have a limited number of 5-frame nucleus colonies(nucs) available this year. Each nuc will have a laying Italian queen with at least 3 frames of bees.
The 5 frames* will consist of:
MINIMUM 2 frames of brood though likely more up to five
1 frame of pollen
1 frame of honey
*We use deep frames.
Ordering Instructions
We are NOT shipping any bees. Nucs are for pick up in Norwalk, CT by appointment only. If you do not bring your own equipment to transfer the frames into, you can take our equipment but you’d have to leave a cash deposit and return the equipment within a week.
