5 Frame Cypress Deep 9 5/8-Inch Brood Box
5 Frame Cypress Deep 9 5/8-Inch Brood Box
The deep box is where your queen lays eggs and the colony raises brood. This 5-frame cypress deep box is nuc-sized — built for splits, swarm catches, and mating nucs rather than a full-size hive.
What You Get
- 7/8" thick cypress boards — naturally rot-resistant, no paint required to hold up outdoors
- Standard 9 5/8" depth, sized to hold 5 deep frames
- Light enough to move a small colony between yards or hand off in a split
- Assembled boxes are stapled at the joints, not just glued, for long-term strength
- Choose unassembled, assembled, or assembled and painted
What It's For
A 5-frame nuc box isn't a permanent home — it's a working tool. Use it to house a split until it's strong enough to move into a full-size box, catch a swarm without hauling a full 10-frame setup, or keep a mating nuc going while a new queen gets established.
