Treated with boiling wax. Flat metal roof. Crown board with 2x porter bee escapes. 3x brood box for 11 frames every box. Metal mesh floor. British bee hives, also known as National hives, are popular among beekeepers for their standardized dimensions and ease of management. These hives typically consist of a brood box where the queen bee lays her eggs and the worker bees raise the young, as well as one or more supers where bees store surplus honey. The design of British bee hives allows for efficient inspection and manipulation of frames, making them ideal for both beginners and experienced beekeepers. By maintaining and expanding the population of bees in these hives, beekeepers contribute to the conservation of honey bee populations in the UK while enjoying the sweet rewards of honey production.
