How to Build Your Bee Hive: What You Need
The number of bee boxes you use depends on your preference and what you're trying to achieve. A combination of medium and deep bee boxes is commonly used. One factor to keep in mind as you are deciding is that honey gets very heavy, which is why 8-frame bee boxes have become popular with backyard beekeepers.
How to Use Our Medium-Sized Hive Box
Our medium bee hive box - sometimes referred to as a medium super - can be used as a honey super (the box where honey is stored) or as a brood box as part of the hive body. This box holds up to 8 frames, making it lighter than our traditional 10-frame boxes.
