🐝🍯 Gentle Honeybee Colony & 10-Frame Hive Equipment for Sale: $400 🐝🍯

I captured this colony as a swarm in Spring 2023. They have a very gentle temperament, and this queen lays beautiful, full frames of brood. Latest FormicPro 20-day mite treatment completes on 10/20.
10-frame equipment includes screened bottom board, 2 deeps, 2 shallows, queen excluder, inner cover, telescoping outer cover, entrance reducer and mason jar entrance feeder. At last inspection in late September, hive contained approximately 5 full frames of capped comb, 2 frames of pollen/bee bread, and 4 frames of brood. Most frames are already drawn out with wax.

Hive is located on our urban farm in Lakewood, CO near West Colfax & Kipling.

Denver friends: someone tied this gorgeous Dalmation puppy to our fence & abandoned her last night. No collar or microchip. Vet says she’s 5-6 months old. She’s a real sweetheart, & good with our dogs. We’d like to find a good home for her, and keep her out of the shelter. So please contact us if you have room in your heart and home for this beautiful girl. 🖤🤍🐾
