Why Choose a Nucleus Hive Kit?
A nucleus hive (nuc box) is an essential tool in beekeeping. Its smaller size allows bees to regulate temperature and humidity more efficiently, supporting strong brood rearing and colony development.
This twin kit is ideal for:
-
Starting two nucleus colonies
-
Splitting strong hives to prevent overcrowding
-
Housing spare queens (and keeping a second nuc ready as backup)
-
Growing nucs into full-sized production colonies
By bundling the nuc boxes, frames, and foundation together, this kit removes common setup mistakes and ensures all components are compatible.
Designed for Beginners, Trusted by Experienced Beekeepers
For new beekeepers, this kit simplifies setup by providing the correct frame size and foundation in one go.
For experienced beekeepers, it’s a practical, cost-effective way to add nuc capacity without paying inflated prices.
We focus on good-quality beekeeping equipment at sensible prices, because beekeeping shouldn’t be unnecessarily expensive.

from 170 reviewsThank you for the foundation sheets.
They were very good!
This suit is much lighter than wearing a heavy cotton jacket. I ordered my husband a size up and I’m pleased I did as it’s a perfect fit for him wearing clothes underneath. Material is of great quality and the price is outstanding for this type of suit. I will buy again from this store. Very very pleased.
Works very well, very comfortable and high quality.
Excellent value for money, fits well - just what a beekeeper needs!
very comfortable and well made, arrived very quickly.
Excellent value just waiting for the swarm to move in!
Haven’t used it yet, though is really good quality item. Was really surprised at the quality considering the price point.
As usual great quality, carefully packed and delivered promptly. Happy to recommend AGS.
i'm 6ft 1 and bought a 3XL, which fits nicely. Have worn suit a few times and feels and now used to putting it on. Feels like it's well made, comfortable and i particularly like the fencing hood which you can open. As ever, great service from AGS
Very good suit. Well made, robust. Heavy but once it's on, that doesn't notice. Love the pockets.
Perfect be space and kinder for the bees than the plastic grid.
Great fit great quality and a great price I wasn’t stung once
As always, great products from AGS and good value too.
Great service and good quality for the price. A very happy little bee keeper in the making.
Very nice jacket. I knew it was oversized so got M (I am 181cm, 80kg). The neck has too much excess fabric, it is not causing a problem but maybe it can be adjusted on a future design.
