  • Service Area: Abilene, Buffalo Gap, Cisco Taylor and Callahan Counties.
  • We offer USED 5 frame wooden nucs, and USED10-frame langstroth equipment

🐝 5-frame Nucs – $350

A nuc (short for nucleus colony) is a small, starter bee colony that helps beekeepers easily establish a new hive. It’s like a mini hive that already has everything the bees need to thrive. Starting with a nuc gives your hive a head start because the bees are already working together as a family — stronger and more established than a package of loose bees.

What’s Included in our Nucs:

  • Unmarked, locally raised Queen
  • 5 frames total:
  • 2-3 frames of brood (baby bees) in all stages
  • 1-2 resource frames with honey and pollen (this may include one frame of undrawn foundation)
  • Plenty of worker bees to support the colony
  • Provided in a 5-Frame box— durable, reusable, and yours to keep!
  • Healthy Hive Guarantee — We guarantee you’re starting with a strong, healthy colony.

🐝 (USED) Full 10-frame Hive Set – $575

Start your beekeeping journey with everything you need!
