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.

Let customers speak for us
from 186 reviewsOutstanding 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.
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!
Excellent service and great quality product! I'm very happy with my 3-layer ventilated suit - no more stings and much cooler in the warm weather.
Fantastic Suit. Loved it so much this is my second. First suit still going strong but wanted a spare. Easy to order, great price and fast delivery.
Great jacket and a really good price, feel protected and well ventilated. Prompt delivery thank you.
Easiest to attach
Good fondant fed them this morning
