I have two colonies for sale. Both have been overwintered.
5 frame national nuc ready to go now, brood in all stages with pollen and honey stores. Bursting with bees. Queen marked (white) and clipped. Needs transferring within days.
5 frame 14x12 nuc, ready now, building up well, brood in all stages with pollen and honey stores, could stay in nuc box for another week or two. Queen marked (white) but not clipped.
Note, I only use white markers to spot the queens. Both colonies had oxalic acid trickled just after Christmas, queens mated last year.
Prices are as follows.
nat nuc £75
14x12 £80
Can be supplied in poly nuc box for extra £30.
Nuc boxes new this year or last, in great condition or new!
Happy for you to drop off your own nuc box the day before collection, or if you are local, happy to help transfer to their new home. I still remember what this can feel like the first time !
Collection from Medway Towns evenings or weekends.
Last winter I didn't lose any bees, that means I now have too many colonies in my apiary, I always try and overwinter a nuc or two to give me a backup to the main colonies-hence the reason to sell.
Happy to answer question.
