10-Frame Cypress Deep 9 5/8-Inch Brood Box

$24.99 USD
Options

This is a cypress deep brood box to be used with 10- Frame Beekeeping Kit and is most commonly used for space for the queen to lay eggs.

It is also necessary to have frames and foundations. But an empty box can be used for surrounding certain types of feeders like a baggie, Boardman, and some top feeders.

You can opt to purchase your cypress brood box unassembled, assembled, or assembled and painted. When choosing the assembled option, we will assemble your box with staples and wood glue so you can be assured they will never fall apart. If choosing assembled and painted, we will assemble your equipment, coat it with a white primer, and finish with a layer of premium-quality, UV-resistant white paint on the outside of the equipment.

We have set ourselves apart by supplying high-quality equipment to beekeepers, and our kits are where we started doing this. The wood we use is a durable, 7/8-inch thick, smooth cypress board that is naturally rot-resistant and will last decades even without paint.

If you are opting to have, us ship the order and would like frames and foundation, order the complete box with frames and foundation instead of the pieces separately. This helps reduce shipping costs for you.

If you are looking for boxes with frames and foundation, go to our cypress kit page, where you can select this box with the frames and foundation added. Available in unassembled, assembled, or assembled and painted.

Thicker Boards

Not gonna mention any names but I purchased 2 cypress boxes from another company. I thought they looked a little different. Well, they were. The Cypress boards were thicker. AND, the hand cut outs are a lot smoother in these. Quality is better with Foxhound.

6 5/8 Cypress Box & Frames

First time buyer from these guys. I chose this vendor because of the cypress wood and the dovetail construction, which I think is superior, along with reasonable pricing. Received my order with good communication, packaged well, and in good condition. I assembled the frames and they fit together well without any problems. The boxes did not come with any nails, which was probably explained but, just the same I needed to go purchase 2 kinds of nails. I chose 2” galvanized outdoor nails and a 1” smaller non-galvanized nail for the 4 places to nail where the wood is thin. I pre-drilled the holes for the nails to prevent cracking. In the old days they used to pre-drill the holes for you but, I would rather drill my own holes than pay more. I painted a primer coat and a second coat with high quality latex paint. Good high quality paint will last a long time these days. I used Sherwin Williams paint I already had. I expect these boxes to last a long time. All in all, I am very pleased with my purchase! I am an old beekeeper who cannot lift full size hive boxes anymore. I am experimenting with managing year around hives in 5 frame boxes. Waiting till spring to see how they over wintered the first year?
