As this is flat packed it will need some assembly. Please note glue, nails, frames, wax foundation or bees are not included.
The nuc box, also called a nuc, is a smaller version of a normal beehive, designed to hold fewer frames. The nuc box is smaller than a hive because it is intended to contain a smaller number of honeybees.
A smaller space makes it easier for the bees to control the temperature and humidity of the colony, which is vital for brood rearing.
A nucleus colony can be used to stop overcrowding in a larger, healthy colony by splitting some of the population off to a new colony.
A nuc can also be used to care for spare queens. A nuc can also grow into a full-sized colony, given proper time, favourable weather, and appropriate resources.

from 188 reviewsGreat value in comparison with other sellers.
Well made leather section of the glove, soft and comfortable. The 3 layer forearm protection has a tighter fit at the opening so no bees can work their way under. Happy so far.
Great value jacket. Seems to be very robustly made and well put together. Quality feel to the garment.
Good quality and perfect fit. Thanks
Good quality stitching
Outstanding quality overall. The order arrived fast, and the embroidered logo features clean, durable stitching at the perfect size.
Fast free delivery highly recommended🐝
Excellent suit. Great air flow.
5 year beekeeper, starting to understand this beekeeping malarkey. I worked out that I don't need a full suit every time I go to the apairy as some of the jobs are 2-3 minutes at each hive. Decided to get a jacket as quicker to put on and off and not as hot. This works. Full protection, good zips and tight waistband. For the price it's amazing. It will get some use.
Excellent jacket, the third one I’ve bought of this design. Having worn both styles of veil, for ladies I think the fencing one sits better and doesn’t flop around as the other sort.
Great company and prompt delivery at a good price. Definitely recommend.
Fantastic quality from AGS.
I personally have used their gear for around 7 years and haven't ever received 1 sting whilst in them.
Over the last couple of years the whole family has switched over.
The triple layer is breathable, hard-wearing and super protection. The suit is substantial but also light enough to work in all day comfortably.
Plenty of pockets all where needed.
I highly recommend this suit and AGS on the whole.
Exceptionally good suit and value for money
Great suit, does exactly what it says on the tin
Great quality and value for money!
I like the jacket and much prefer the round hat to the fencing veil. I think I ordered a size bigger than I needed as I have long arms, but it's fine. Definitely cooler than a cotton suit!
