Good afternoon,
My dad is all set up and ready to start keeping bees.
To save him some money I am going to give him some of mine.
What should the nuc consist of?
I know it should have newly laid eggs as well as larvae, capped brood etc etc and of course some stores.
My main query is should I provide the existing queen or allow the bees to rear their own?
Thanks in advance
