Simplify your beekeeping setup with the 8-Frame Painted & Assembled Deep Brood Box, complete with frames and wax-coated foundations—ready to use right out of the box. Designed for both new and experienced beekeepers, this hive body offers the perfect balance between capacity, weight, and manageability.
The 8-frame deep brood box provides ample space for the queen to lay eggs and for the colony to raise brood, while remaining lighter and easier to handle than traditional 10-frame setups. Its smaller size makes it a favorite among beekeepers who value ease of lifting and inspection, particularly when hives are full and heavy.
Crafted from premium fir and pine wood, each box is built for long-term durability and performance. Precision-cut dovetail joints ensure a tight, secure fit that maintains structural integrity through seasonal changes, while the fully painted exterior protects the wood from moisture and weather exposure. Inside, the included wood frames and wax-coated foundations create an ideal environment for fast comb acceptance and healthy brood development.
This box arrives completely assembled and painted, saving you the hassle of building and finishing components yourself. Simply add bees, and you’re ready to grow your colony with confidence.
