One of our specialized products at Bee Champions is the Barn Hive. It is exclusive to us and we believe that it is a very effective tool when it comes to beekeeping.
Here is the Barn Hive when it's closed, as if a bee colony is already occupying the hive. We have taken great care to create a high-quality, bee-friendly product to assist you in all needs of your beekeeping, whether it be commercial or hobby.
This picture is what the Barn Hive looks like when it's opened. As you can see, the Barn Hive fits five frames and has two areas made for storage and use.
One of the features of the barn hive is the storage area on one side. Here, you can keep your hive tool, bee brush, and frame grip. In our unique Observation Barn Hives, this area has a plexiglass screen so you can observe your comb without disturbing the bees.
In this area, you can fit a feeder or use it as an extra storage area. This can be a vital area for you to make use of, as you will not have to remove any frames to fit a feeder into your hive. When a feeder is no longer needed, it is a simple matter to close off the area. This way, you don't disturb the bees when you replace the feeder. Bees will also not build comb in the feeder.
The benefits of the Barn Hive are countless. It can be used as both a nuc (especially useful because of the added feeder area) as well as a honey super. It is also especially useful in wintering bees, since you can add the feeder and give the bees a smaller space to warm throughout the cold months. It is also waterproof, so there is no need to worry when storms come through. Not to mention that it looks fantastic!
We have several varieties of the Barn Hive available to you:
