Nuc to National?

[SteveG]

2 x 5 frame nuc box with new queens, 3 frames brood, 2 frames drawn and almost full, do i move into national or leave in the nuc for winter?

I would move them into National hive with a dummy board and reduced entrance and build it up two frames (one on each side) at a time

depending on your area still plenty of time and forage for them to build up before winter

Are your nucs stackable? All mine are three tiers, eighteen frames and staying like that until Spring.
