3 POUND BEE PACKAGE INFO

If you want to support local beekeepers and get package bees for a great price then you found the right place. Here's Why..

  • Our 3 Pound Bee Packages are made locally from our bees in Layton, UT and other local Utah beekeeping operations and won't been shipped from out of state on a truck for long distance while bouncing on a truck to get to you.
  • Check out our Google reviews! We have a strong reputation and we work hard to keep it.
  • You are supporting a local family owned business. We love what we do!
  • You get the support of 2 experienced beekeepers who are willing to answer questions you might have or guide you through any situation you might be stuck on or are unsure about.
  • Free Marked Queen with current years color - Other providers don't offer this. We see the value of having a marked queen especially for beginners. It's very educational to be able to see the queen.
  • Your bees will be treated for varroa mites so your bees can have a nice clean start.

 

You can't go wrong choosing between a PACKAGE or NUC. But with a 3 pound bee package it's fun to see the process and witness the hive grow from nothing into a full strong hive. Or maybe you just need to add bees to a vacant hive from the previous year. Either way, you will save a little bit of money. Bonus!

 

All bees are Italian/Cardovan and Carniolan mix. They are bred for their gentleness and honey collecting. 3 Pound Bee Package INCLUDES $5 refundable deposit for bee cage when cage is returned in re-usable condition. Bonus!

It’s been a couple of weeks since installation, and everything is going wonderfully. The queen is laying consistently, and the colony appears strong and active. So far, this package has definitely met my expectations, and I’m very pleased with how well they’ve established themselves.

All is going well with my two new bee packages. I did a check yesterday and found a couple of frames full of capped brood in each hive.
I liked the way of scheduling the new bee pickup this year (Salt Lake). It went fast and smooth.

Great experience again with this bee package. It arrived full and healthy with fewer than 10 dead bees, which is always a great sign. Installation went smoothly and the colony is already off to a strong start. I’ve ordered from here before and have been really impressed with the genetics—my last package overwintered beautifully and is still thriving. Highly recommend!

Package held out nicely in the garage over 3 days of very cold weather, then went into the hive without issues. 5 days later the queen is out and active. 2 weeks in, they are drawing comb, storing nectar, making capped brood, and appear to be thriving. Thank you Richard.

I evaluated the packages today, all three Queens are laying solid brood patterns all the way out to the frame edge. The bees are building comb very fast in a top bar hive and the queen is laying as they build. They are set up on 4 bars and have comb on all 4 one third full. Eggs up to capped brood, mixed with pollen. The other two packages were put on 3 drawn comb frames with a two frame feeder in a five frame nuc box. They each have a full capped brood frame both sides, that frame was placed in a upper 5 frame box with a mix of empty and drawn comb frames so they can build new comb. The two frame feeder was moved to the upper box . I am very satisfied with my purchase. Thank you thank you thank you. I will be returning the package boxes on my way home from work next week. I lost the queen corks.

As a 3rd generation Beekeeper I find that all the Nucs, packages and queens from Homer’s are of the highest quality. I’ve ran thousands of hives. I highly recommend Homer’s Honeybees.

I am very happy with the 3lb bee package. I am a first time bee keeper. With no experience. The 3lb package was easy to find the queen trap and transfer the bees to the hive. They are healthy and doing very well
