BEES FOR SALE
Buying bees: I have bees ready for sale at most times
of the year but the best time to buy bees is in the early spring when
they are easy to handle and move around (£100
for the bees and £80 for a Nucleus Box to put them in if one
is required)
Buying a hive of bees in the spring also
has the advantage that you are likely to get some honey from your bees
before the year is over.
However, you can buy bees from me in the middle of the
summer and build a strong colony to go through the winter ready
for a
good start the following spring and you can buy them in the autumn
with Apistan (Varoa control) strips in.
To get started in beekeeping you need:- a hive
base with entrance block, a brood
box with 11 made up brood frames, a queen excluder on top of
the brood box, several supers
and
frames, a crown board on top of the supers, and finally a lid on top.
If you have this equipment already, but without bees,
you can bring your brood box to me and I can swap frames with brood
and bees for you. A nulcleous = four frames, one with the queen on,
one with brood and two with stores on is £100.
A brood box of bees is £150 (four frames
only = £100). When you buy a brood box of bees from me you get
all of my frames (standard national) in exchange for your frames. Once
the queen has been located and the frame she is on has been moved to
your brood box the other frames are moved from my brood box to yours
as well.
If you
wish you can buy my brood
box, entrance block,
base, and a crown board, in which case l will block the entrance in
the evening after the bees have stopped flying and later that same
evening you
can
take the brood box away with the bees in all strapped down and secured
- £190.
If you wish me to set everything
up with brand new equipment just for you I will need a little notice.
The complete hive
will
cost £180.
Extra supers
complete with made up frames cost £55 each. If you have no
equipment at all and are starting from scratch you will need three
or four supers
and a
lid on top. (lid £25 made up).
BUY THE WORKS - A NEW HIVE MADE UP COMPLETE WITH
A LAYING QUEEN AND BEES PLUS 3 SUPERS MADE UP READY FOR HONEY PRODUCTION
Bees (with queen) on 11 frames in a brood box on a base with queen
excluder and crown board, plus three supers with nine made up frames
in each super and a made up lid - £450 and I will deliver them
to you if you are within 50 miles or so of Norwich. (£50)
If you need all the equipment mentioned
above and wish to make up the boxes yourself check out Thornes current
stated prices. If you are working
to a very low budget
email
me to see if there is any old second hand equipment available.
If you are giving up bee keeping and have second hand
bee keeping kit that you want to sell please email
me (or call on 01603 440605) I
often have customers waiting to buy.
WAX
I do have some beeswax
for sale at £1 an ounce..
