Hi All

I was just curiously as to what bees go for around the forum world. Bees are fairly experience here as Nucs and Packages are quite rare in the UK. So how much does it cost/do you charge for:

A queen:

A package:

A housed swarm:

A 5 frame Nuc:

A 10 frame colony:

So how much does it cost/do you charge for:

A queen: $10 virgin $20 mated local mutts local open mated.

A package: I do not buy or sell these but see prices of $100 each. 3 Lb. packages

A housed swarm:$125 if I supply the hive $75 for the equipment $50 for the swarm

A 5 frame Nuc: $150

A 10 frame colony: Never bought or sold but have a number $250 in my head for a ten frame hive. I keep my hives as deeps and mediums and woudl sell them for $375 each.
