The Blue Gum Eucs are in their early stages of blooming. Lots of buds on
the trees thanks to previous season of El Nino's abundant rains.
Since it should be a great early build up. I am thinking of making up a
number of 5 frame nucs using MBA splitters to keep my bee population at a
manageable level.
Question: What is price of a 5 frame nuc predicted to be in the 1999
season? Do I include price of box (wooden vs corrugated plastic boxes) or
just sell the bees and 5 frames and let buyer front cost of box?
