BEE ART: Painted and decorated beehive (Deep/Brood and Medium/honey super)

Description: BEE ART: ART YOUR BEES LIVE IN! and Art for your garden. Designed for BEEKEEPERS who keep honey bees and for the wonderful, amazing honey bees who will live inside. The product is a painted and decorated beehive (i.e. a Hive Body with a Medium (honey super) and deep (Brood box)). It is brand new from a well known and recommended bee supplies shop, with a manufacturing origin in the United States. This unique beehive offers both functionality for beekeeping purposes and aesthetic appeal with its artistic design, making it a standout piece in any apiary setting. This beautiful UNIQUE custom painted bee hive consists of a LANGSTROTH brood box/brood chamber (deep) and a honey super (medium) only. There are no other hive components included. You will need to purchase your own bottom board, inner cover, queen excluder, telescoping lid and FRAMES. THESE ARE FOR 10 FRAME LANGSTROTH HIVES. This exquisitely designed beehive is a must-have for any beekeeping enthusiast, and is beautifully painted and decorated hive body from Pretty Bee Hives' NATURE collection - the "GARDEN" piece. Who doesn't want a stunning, unique bee hive? I'm sure having something like this REALLY helps the forager bees orient to their home because it really stands out. For the bees who dare to dream about flying over forests and mountains and fields of beautiful flowers. All beehives are made of premium pine (long lasting and safe for the bees), purchased assembled from reputable bee supply stores, painted with two coats of exterior non toxic/low VOC latex paint, and then the artwork begins! So your hive has the necessary protection against rain and sun, having been painted with all weather exterior Behr's paint. There are several collections. EACH HIVE IS UNIQUE. NO TWO HIVES ARE THE SAME - so rest assured that nobody else in the world will have one like this. If you want a custom hive with special colors or designs, let me know - happy to oblige. The most important thing is that you like it and the bees like it! Art that your bees can live in and art for your garden. Each hive (again, not a FULL hive but a hive body, meaning a deep box and a medium box) is something from a dream, a spiral, a pattern, an abstract, sometimes black and white, sometimes brightly colored, some geometrical shapes, you just never know with Dreamscape. Each hive comes complete with a Brood Chamber (deep box) and a Medium (honey super) - the design and patterns fit together only in one direction, so you can be sure you never mistakenly replace the honey super and it is in the wrong orientation/direction. The deep should be used by itself UNTIL YOUR COLONY HAS ESTABLISHED ITSELF AND AT LEAST 8 OUT OF 10 FRAMES are full of bees - only then do you add your honey super. If you add your honey super too soon, it can be invaded with pests and there may not be enough bees to defend the hive. Wax moths and small hive beetles are bees' enemies - so make sure you don't add your super too soon. But when you do, you'll see it fits perfectly in place with the design of the deep. BEES ARE NOT INCLUDED! I am located in south Florida, and free pickup is welcome. Otherwise, happy to ship anywhere. I do offer UPS shipping as well, please message me before you purchase and I will get an exact quote. It most likely will be less than the USPS price quoted here. **CUSTOM HIVES AVAILABLE!*** A UNIQUE piece of bee art for your bees to enjoy when they are orienting themselves to their hive - and a stunning piece of art fo you to admire when you look at your apiary and fall more in love with your bees. You are looking at a matching DEEP (BROOD BOX OR BROOD CHAMBER) and MEDIUM (also known as a honey super) - 10 frame hive body. The reason they are matching is they are painted and decorated so that the medium and deep are designed as one art piece. They are BRAND NEW, never been used by bees, only pained with two coats of exterior latex NO/LOW VOC (non toxic) paint to provide weatherproof, and then decorated, using the same type of paint, so these boxes will stand up to all kinds of weather. This saves you having to paint them yourself (exterior paint is not cheap) and as they are decorated, all you need to do is worry about getting your bees in there. I know it seems like I"m repeating myself but I want to be clear: these are the BOXES ONLY (Brood box and medium honey super) - no frames are included (otherwise too heavy to ship) - and there is no bottom board, queen excluder, inner cover or telescoping lid - no other hive components are included, and definitely no bees. These are the two boxes only that will house the amazing queen and her beautiful workers (the deep), and then when the time is right and you see the hive is at least 80 percent full, that's the time to super - and the super will only go on in one direction to match the design. The wood is high quality pine and cut with box joints to ensure stability - the boxes are fully assembled. All you need dto do is put the entire hive set together with bottom board, inner cover and telescoping lid, and add this BROOD BOX, and you're good to go to put in your bees. They are available for free pickup from Fort Lauderdale, otherwise shipping is an option. We do not accept returns, simply because when the hive body leaves here, it is hygienic and brand new, never having had bees inside it before. Once someone takes ownership of it and perhaps puts bees inside, it could be exposed to all kinds of things (chemical treatments, for example) - so you are guaranteed to receive a pristine, brand new, unused, unlived in hive body (deep and medium).
