Nuc vs Package Debate:
Nuc vs Package bees is a common debate. Watch as a package and nuc (nucleus hive) are inspected side by side over the course of an entire season to compare the buildup of both. See during each inspection which has built more comb, a bigger honey bee population, and produced more honey.
If you are interested in becoming a beekeeper NewBee UNiversity offers a complete course that will move you from hesitation to harvesting honey. If you are interested in enrolling in our course Introduction to Beekeeping please visit the link below:

I have one hive at present, and nucs and packages coming this spring. Would you recommend a mite treatment for the new bees when I get them?

Comparison of nuc n package?we saw the package only am i wrong?

[@bjconway]

if you put a package into a five-frame nuc box they will build 25% faster. I also used an internal frame feeder with 1.5 gallons then took it out and added the blank frames for them to build.
