WE ONLY SELL MEDIUM FRAME NUCS !!!!

Our Nuc Colonies are raised in a 6 frame Nuc box so we can select the best 5 frames for your Nuc. We strive to provide more bees with just enough room for the Queen to continue to lay eggs until your Bees arrive at their new home! We believe the more bees the better!

WARNING! Have your hive ready so when you arrive home you  can place your new colony in their new hive!

  All our Nucs are either the daughter of, or the granddaughter of,  an I.I. (Instrumentally Inseminated) queen in order to provide you with the best genetics we can. We replace our I.I. queens every 3-5 years to maintain good genetics and diversity in our Apiary. Terry purposely lets 15% of his apiary swarm each year in order to get more of our genetics out in the mating area's where drone bees hang out for mating.

Our Nucs are available starting in early June weather permitting!  

If Mother nature throws us some unusual weather it may delay pick up!!

Please be patient!!

  We do not release any Nuc until it passes the strict standards that Terry has set. Rest assured when you get your new bees they will be the best we can provide! Terry inspects EVERY Nuc before releasing it to a customer.

Hygienic Behavior

Worker bees detect and uncap cells that contain infected or dead brood before the pathogen can spread. This behavior can help control diseases like American Foulbrood, Chalkbrood, and Varroa.

Varroa Sensitive Hygiene (VSH)

A behavioral trait in which bees detect and remove brood infested by Varroa Mite, which is considered to be one of the most dangerous pests for Honey Bees Worldwide.
