Pure-Bred Russian Nucleus Beehive

A nucleus hive provides one of the most reliable ways to start beekeeping. This pure-bred Russian nucleus hive includes an established colony with a laying queen, brood, and working bees already functioning together.

All queens have been raised by certified members of the Russian Bee Breeders Association for Varroa Mite resistance, gentleness, and productivity. Additional information on certification standards is available at the Russian Honeybee Breeders Association website

Please select whether you would like a marked or unmarked queen in the options below. Having a marked queen makes it easier to identify her.
