I was in Rossman's today and they said they were still taking orders for packages. I was surprised because I know the last couple of years they would sell out within 3 days of taking orders.
what were they asking for them?
Sorry, I didn't think to ask and it's not noted on their website. Here is the phone number if you are interested. 1-800-333-7677
i'm going to need to make a run down there some time soon anyway. it would be nice to start some up with out setting what i have back this year.
Rob our club preorders nucs every year from a GA supplier. I think we have a few extras if you want me to check. They are $120 and in the past they were exceptional.

Willbanks in Ga had them a couple of weeks ago, about $100 each shipped. Starts shipping in May pick up in March.

steve i was thinking about getting packages with no queens but that's a good price for a nuc. what part of georgia do they come out of and are they deeps?
Yes they are five frame deeps. They come from the Unadilla, Ga area.
Steve
when do you usually get them?
another source about the same price as Wilbanks; www.lookoutmountainhoneybees.com (http://www.lookoutmountainhoneybees.com) Not sure on the ship dates but pickup on March 29th. These are 3 lb packages as well.
gary, not sure what to make about that last one. he advertises packages with vhs italian queens but his about us section says he sells packages with his queens which are russian crosses.
I'll let you know how they turn out ;)
