Easily order your honeybees online. Let us know how we can help you continue to move forward in your beekeeping adventures.
We are based in Western Wisconsin in the summer and the Pacific Southwest during winter months. We make trips with loads of spring nucs to a number of locations branched out from our bases, giving us a chance to see the country and meet more beekeepers!
Nuc - 5 Frame - Carniolan Queen
Nuc - 5 Frame - Carniolan Queen
Nuc consists of approximately 3-4 frames of brood, 1-2 frames of feed/pollen, and laying, young queen on five frames of good, drawn comb. Each nuc is carefully inspected for queens to be laying and nucs to be apparently disease free. Nucs come housed in sturdy, wooden transport boxes. We have found wooden transport boxes protect the bees well and can be re-used in apiaries for many seasons. Also, we will buy back the nuc transport boxes. No additional box deposit required.
Carniolan: The Carniolan honeybee variety is a darker bee known for flying at lower temperatures. This can be useful when pollinating as the bees will fly earlier in the morning and on cooler days. Queens are sourced from Northern California.
Bees will be available for pick up in May. Delivery may be available. Wisconsin pick up will be coordinated individually.
