Modified Dadant

[Frisbee]

I was asked a few days ago if I could have a look at at the equipment of a deceased beekeeper. I went along yesterday, not knowing what to expect, but maybe a few heaps of hive shaped sawdust So I was quite surpirised to be shown into several old farm buildings and see neatly stacked against the walls a considerable amount of hive parts. I wasn't sure what they were as I've only really dealt with nationals, but eventually I found a Th****s wax box and they were Modified Dadants. I would guess there are approximately 30 hives.......brood boxes, lots of supers, Q/E's, crown boards, roofs etc. lots of unused (I think the way they were stacked) frame parts. Some of the roofs and crown boards need a bit of tlc, but generally everything was in pretty good nick.

I said I would help them to sell the stuff, so am starting on here before I make them up into complete hives and sell on eway

Photo's of several of the stacks.

Re modified dadants

Hi, I've currently got ten strong colonies in modified dadant hives and i'm looking to expand; from the photos the collection would be absolutely perfect to get things moving next year. I'm based in cardiff and have access to large vans / removal lorries so i could collect them from wherever they are without any trouble. If you could send me a rough inventory of what's there altogether / still available as well as a rough price for the lot that would be brilliant. My email's: [email protected] or phone 07846342037.

Look forward to hearing from you. Phil.

These have now been sold and are looking forward to their new home.

Thanks Admin for letting me put the notice on here.
