What is a nucleus hive?

A nucleus hive (often called a nuc) is a small bee colony — the easiest and most reliable way to begin beekeeping. It gives you a working hive ready to expand from day one.

Our 5-frame nucleus hive includes

  • This season’s proven Queen

  • 2 generous frames of brood

  • 2 frames of resources - honey and pollen

  • 1 mixed frame of brood, honey and pollen

  • An extra shake of bees

All of this results in a nuc that will be ready to expand into your new hive.

Before your nuc arrives- have these ready

  • A set up hive to receive the nuc

  • 5 frames fully assembled with wax foundation

  • Bee suit and gloves

  • Smoker and hive tool

All of our nucleus hives are delivered in a corflute box, sealed for safe transport.

We can deliver up to 30km from Murwillumbah, Northern NSW. Additional travel outside of this region incurs a fee of $100 per hour.

Date and time to be arranged on confirmation of purchase.

Please note that home beekeepers must be registered with the Department of Primary Industries. You can register online here.
