2024 Spring Nucleus Colony - Preorder

PLEASE READ NUC SALE DETAILS BELOW

The following items are presale items only. In other words the "purchase" is to reserve your nuc order for a later date when hives are able to be split, most likely early spring but is mainly weather dependent. Pick-up availability tends to be mid to late May. 

Our Nucleus hives, or nucs, are made by dividing existing colonies in the early spring. Each nuc has a marked, mated queen. Your nuc will consist of either 3 or 5 deep frames (depending on choice at checkout), with a combination of brood, honey, and pollen. Nucs may contain plastic and/or wood frames. 

Nuc orders are limited to the spring/early summer and need to be placed 4 weeks prior to customer need by date. 

Orders will be fulfilled in the order that they are received.

Please be advised:

These orders are PICK UP only, unless discussed with a representative. If needing a delivery, delivery charges will be applied depending on location and distance. 

Prices at check out include a $20 refundable box deposit. If you wish to receive your deposit, please return boxes to pick up location or discuss pick up by Brett's Bees representative. Actual nuc prices are $160 (3-frame) and $200 (5-frame) disregarding box deposit. 

Please be sure to read the following Terms and Conditions in regards to Nuc Sales:
