2020 Nucs for Sale

For 2020, I have several kinds of nucs available, each consisting of five medium depth frames, including adult bees, three frames of brood of varied ages (all of which are offspring of your marked queen), as well as frames of pollen and honey.  You will take the nuc home in a waxed cardboard nuc box ($10), from which you can transfer it to an eight or ten frame medium depth box.

Nucs with locally raised 2020 queens bred from local survivor mothers.  Queen mothers may be of Italian, Carni, VSH or other desirable stock; all queen mothers have survived one to multiple winters here in SE PA. Five frames of bees, three frames of your queen’s brood, as well as frames of nectar and pollen. Likely availability is June-July. $165 + $10 for waxed cardboard box = $175.

Nucs with locally raised 2020 queens bred from a VSH Carni breeder queen from VP Queens. Five frames of bees, three frames of your queen’s brood, as well as frames of nectar and pollen. Likely availability is June-July. $165 + $10 for waxed cardboard box = $175.

I am PA licensed to sell Queens and Nucleus colonies. As part of this program, my queen rearing apiaries are inspected by the PA Department of Agriculture. I use no antibiotics or synthetic chemicals in my beekeeping operations.

To get on the nuc list, go to my web site: https://vincemasterbeekeeper.com/contact/ I do not take advance deposits, as I cannot guarantee availability in advance.  Requests are honored on a first come, first served basis.  Thank you for your interest! Vincent Aloyo
