14x12 Full colony(ies) and / or 14x12 overwintered nucs

[jxl98c]

Hello all,

I've suffered zero losses over the last couple of years and my Apiaries have grown quite a bit more than I originally anticipated - Given that I have a full time job to focus on and the missus keeps telling me that "you love your bees more than me" - I've decided I should probably scale back a little to keep the peace.

I'm going to sell some of my colonies to get back down to a more manageable size -

• I have a couple of 5/6 frame 14x12 nuc's from artificial swarms in P***s poly hives with
• I have a couple of overwintered (2013 queen) 5/6 frame 14x12 nuc's, also in P***s poly hives.
• I have a couple of smaller year old colonies in 14x12 full size kit.
• I have many well established 14x12 colonies in some really nice cedar kit and some average kit (painted softwood).
• Oh, and I have an odd brood and a half colony.

All are well looked after - I don't intend on selling all of the above, I just need to scale back so I don't mind what bits sell and what I keep so please feel free to ask. I actually have a really strong nectar flow from early spring right through to late autumn with the Himalayan Balsam by the River Maun so I have no trouble building up strong colonies if I'm left with the nucs.

I'll also happily sell frames of bees if you have your own kit and if you're a complete novice then I'm sure I can arrange some apiary time to help you get up to speed.

Please PM me if there is anything that takes your fancy.

Kind Regards,
James

I have the same comments from HID:-

on offer!
one "spouse" used female with own wardrobe! not one of these slim slow breeders, but probably not so fertile should do one season.

I could have added that but I left the putta on with the info still up when I whent to clear up the dog eggs in the garden, I did get summoned and an agreement insued, women no sense of humour after marriage I say.
