Product Overview
10 Frame Premium Bee Hive Colony Expanding Kit Painted White
The 10-frame Premium Bee Hive Colony Expanding Kit is crafted from pine and arrives fully assembled and painted white for your convenience. Simply take it out of the shipping box, set it up, and you're ready to add your bees! This beehive is the top choice for beginners starting a new hive.
ALL NEW!! All of our bee hives come with your choice of Triple Waxed plastic one piece frames, or assembled wooden frames with Triple Waxed foundation! These frames / foundations have the heaviest coating of wax available on the market!! The heavier coating of wax helps promote the bees acceptance, and the fresh, natural aroma of the wax helps encourage the bees to start working on it (prevents bees from leaving the hive after being installed, unlike lower grade foundations with less wax coating, found in cheaper hive setups). Your choice of all natural yellow, like beeswax, or black deep / yellow honey super. Why settle for less?
Please note: The difference in colors has nothing to do with the bees acceptance; it all has to do with the preference of each beekeeper. The black foundation makes it easy to find out if your queen is alive and laying well: it is easy to see the small white eggs against the black background, so you don't have to see your queen to know that you have one. It also makes it easier to tell if you have a drone layer. Yellow foundation is more like actual beeswax, and it is quite often more preferred by a lot of our customers.
