Nucs

The work-horse of my sawrm collecting and the management of the apiary are the poly nucs. These are super functional and often change role.

Green and white

Green and White

Swarm in an apple tree in Horsham 6th May. Growing nicely but being left to their own devices.

Red and White

Split from Red white poly hive. Few bees and a queen cell.

Blue and White

Bees from a trap out in Horsham. Most probably queen less so using the numbers to bolster the small colony in the red and white nuc.

Blue

Currently in between Station D and E empty and ready for a swarm.

Green

Currently in the tree for the trap out.

Multi-functional nuc boxes

Awesome little nuc boxes x 2 can be used on their own or with the bee hover. Details are here.
