Honey Bees - Packaged Bees, 5- Frame Nucs and Queens

Now Taking Orders for Spring 2022

5- Frame Nucs - 2022

Russian and Carniolan Nucs - $175
Italian Nucs - $180

Russian, Carniolan, Italian, and Italian/Carniolan Cross 5-Frame Nucs - $195.  


Our Russian  5-frame nucs should arrive in late-April or early May. 

The Italian and Carniolan Nucs will be from Northern California and usually arrive in mid-April. This load is currently sold out. The Russian load still has a few nucs available.


The Italian/Carniolan Cross Nucs will be from Southern Missouri and usually arrive in the 1st half of May. This load is currently sold out. The Russian load still has a few nucs available.


Each nuc is inspected by the producers prior to shipping and will be inspected by us before you pick it up to ensure it meets our quality standards. We schedule nuc pickups in the early morning or late evening so the nucs can be closed up when the foragers are all back at the hive, and the nucs can travel to their new home in the coolest part of the day. 


To place an order, please give us a call at (660) 214-0132. If you have ordered from us before and your contact information has not changed, you may place your order by email.

Orders are not confirmed until full payment is received. Bees are the only item that requires pre-payment. You will not get a refund if you fail to pick up your bees.


Nucs Installed in New Equipment - 2022

Russians, Carniolans, Italians, or Italian/Carniolan Cross- $335


NUCs can also be purchased already installed in a  hive. This will include a new painted deluxe bottom board, a new deep painted hive body, 5 new assembled frames with foundation (the other 5 will be from the nuc), a new reversible notched inner cover, a new deluxe telescoping cover, a ratchet strap for transport, and the bees. This is a great option, if you may need a few extra days to pick up your bees.  See our "Bee and Hive Kit Specials page" if you need a complete hive kit or a complete beginner's kit.

Northern Missouri Raised Queens - CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

We produce a limited number of queens.  We select our queens for hardiness, production, and low mite count. We hope to have some available starting in late May.  We also stay in contact with other local queen suppliers. When we do not have queens available, we can usually direct you to someone in the area who does.  If you would like to place an order for a queen, please call (660) 214-0132.
