How to Install a Nucleus into a Hive 

Thanks for this video just about to pick up our first nuc and it has given me added confidence. Keep up your excellent series. I have shared it with my bee partner.

Congrats on the sponsorship!!

Thanks for this timely video. I will be installing my first 2 nucs today. I put them on top of their hives yesterday to orientate as instructed by my supplier. Is it better to install them when the flying bees are out foraging .

Thanks - another great video!

Thanks for the video Mate !

Excellent production, thank you very much. I have had my nuc in a hive with standard deep brood frames for a week now, and they are doing well and expanding onto 8 frames. I wish to move them into a 14x12 box would this be okay now, or should I wait until all the frames are full? Really appreciate your guidance. Regards,

Hi, I have chance of a 6 frame nuc on national deep frames. I am set up with 14x12 national brood box, new. How would you recommend getting nuc bees into 14x12 box.

The frames were in the nuc the cold way, but went in the hive the warm way. Does this cause any issues?

You never answer back lol but I like your vids

I got the same hat as you but I can’t wear it around the bees they hate it and just attack it on site.

When splitting my buckfast colony can I request it with a jolanta queen

You must not have small hive beetles there, good video

Hi - why do you chose not feed a nuc to help them draw out the foundation?

That is a LOT of bees on your back! Hope you got out of the suit ok

I don’t think you’ll want to drive 200 miles to help install mine 🤔🤔😂😂😂

To be honest I looked at your suit and thought about purchasing a breathable suit...but £400 for a bee suit...really? I'm sure they are quality but £400!
