Collection: Nucleus Colonies

Langstroth & National available.

Both types can be ordered for either a 5 Frame Correx Box or a 6 Frame Poly Nuc Box.

Which is best?

Correx Box or a Poly Nuc Box?

Correx Box:

5 frame Transportation box only. Not for long term use.

Poly Nuc Box:

6 frame Transportation & Nucleus box for future, longer term use eg. Swarm collection or making pre-emptive splits.

All bees are reared by The Yorkshire Beekeeper from Queens grafted from my own top-performing colonies.

Only the best performing Queens are chosen for obtaining the grafted cells - these are then Marked, Open Mated & Overwintered.
