I have a neighbor about 1 1/2 miles down the road who called me about removing wasps from his house, come to find out he wants honeybees! so next spring, if I have resources, I'm going to give him a nuc :cool:
Great to hear he's interested! In the meanwhile, point him in the direction of knowledge.
Personally, I would sell him the nucs, discounted for a friend perhaps. I have a lot of dollars tied up in these expensive critters and I want them to become self-supporting, not a continual money pit.
I'll second that. I'm hoping to, after I retire, make a living from them.

People will take better care of something they pay for than something they can get for free. SELL THEM.
Sorry, was confused at the responses, I am planning on selling it to him for $100 instead of $150 like most places charge for nuc's (no offence to anyone who does)
:wink:
