+vicusa1 Hi. This is because we have transferred the bees from the NUC hive to a full deep 8 frame hive. So all the bees moved in 30 minutes following the queen pheromones. The sun made a difference too. It was a beautiful day and the honey tasted delicious. Have a great day!
NEW VIDEO - Custom Made Nuc box BEEHIVE decorated by bees themselves.
//www.mahakobees.com/store.html looks briefly at our custom made
#beekeeping nuc hive which our hyperactive and super productive honey bees
filled to the brim with burr comb and golden #honey. We also show you a
close up of our handmade wooden hive entrance reducer which assists new bee
colony splits in protecting their hive entrance until they grow in numbers.
So when would a budding #beekeeper use such a small beehive, or a nucleus
#beehive? These hives are typically used for splitting your colonies or to
relocate a small swarm of bees if you are lucky enough to find one. The
hive itself can come in many forms, shapes and sizes. Standard width is 4
or 5 #Langstroth style full depth frames and the hive body itself is
usually made out of wood, much like a normal full size brood chamber would
be with an entrance and a top cover. There are also polystyrene and
cardboard versions available in various local beekeeping supplies outlets,
but these are used for transportation generally. The nucs can also be user
to raise queens if you have lots of beehives and want to save money on
re-queening. Once you order one (or better yet, make one), it is usually
flat packed like other timber beehives and needs to be assembled. It
functions exactly the same way as a normal full size hive would, but the
space is smaller and most importantly, the hive entrance is much smaller in
width, which enables the new guard honey bees to protect the colony from
being robbed, attacked or invaded by pests such as the #wax moth and small
hive beetles. We add an additional adjustable hive entrance reducer which
further restricts the opening because the bees in their first few days
after migration only have a few guard bees available for hive protection,
so the reducer helps by reducing the opening further minimizing their
exposure to external threat. Once the #colony fills up all the frames and
you have a healthy fertilized and laying queen, you can either migrate them
to a full hive or add a second level to the nuc. You will need to make that
decision depending on where you live and how strong your bee colony is as
well as other factors such as the season you are in, availability of food
and flowering plants, and availability of your beekeeping equipment.

these hives, come and visit our simple online beekeeping supplies eStore
