Deep brood boxes are designed to give 3 more inches of room on each frame for the queen to lay her eggs. Deep hive bodies like these were made to be positioned underneath the honey supers because the queen prefers to have the honey above her brood. These deep bee boxes are made from Fir wood and have dovetail joints to increase their durability. They can be used with any 10 frame Langstroth beehive with no issues. Each frame is made from New Zealand Pine. They use CellTech foundations that have already been coated in 100% beeswax to ensure your bees quickly develop an even layer of comb. The CellTech foundations are also made from food grade black plastic to make it easier for you to inspect white brood eggs against the dark background.

From day one NuBee has sought to lower barriers that prevent people from picking up the veil and becoming a backyard beekeeper. With this goal in mind, NuBee originally focused on developing an 8 frame hive that would be as light and durable as possible, at an honest price. Since then NuBee has grown into 10 frame beehives and are now a favorite first hive among beekeepers. Their balance between high quality and affordability is second to none. They continue to delight customers with their attention to detail at such a great price. Every joint has been cut using dovetails to ensure a perfectly square hive. NuBee uses a combination of Fir and Pine to produce treasures that will last for years to come. The craftsmanship is noteworthy and their hive parts are cut using the same industry standard dimensions that all other Langstroth beehive brands are made with. This means every one of their parts are interchangeable with any other 10 frame beehive parts you may already have. These days, NuBee continues to lower barriers by dedicating its extra time to teaching beekeepers how to start successful apiaries. They are not only equipping you with the right tools, but are focusing on equipping you with the right knowledge on how to use them. Looking to Buy in Bulk?
