START KEEPING BEES!
Take advantage of our most complete hive kit with bees. This package includes
2 assembled and painted hives as shown in this picture along with 2 packages of
bees and queens for both packages. Also included are all the wooden frames and
foundation, entrance feeders, queen excluders, bee brush, a beginner's book on
beekeeping, a smoker and smoker fuel, a hive tool, a hat and veil and gloves.
Why is it better to start with two hives? Certainly starting with 1 hive is fine.
However, when starting with two hives you have the advantage of comparing
your hives and sharing resources between the hives. Even if one hive loses their
queen, you can move over a frame of eggs from your queen-right hive and the
queenless hive will raise their own queen from that frame of eggs that you moved
over. CLICK HERE TO ORDER OUR COMPLETE FREEDOM KIT
