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

$29.99

The deep box is where your queen lays eggs and the colony raises brood. This 8-frame cypress deep box gives her 9 5/8 inches of depth in a smaller footprint than a 10-frame box — a full 8-frame deep still gets heavy at harvest, but it's noticeably easier to lift than its 10-frame counterpart.

What You Get

  • 7/8" thick cypress boards — naturally rot-resistant, no paint required to hold up outdoors
  • Standard depth (9 5/8"), sized for 8-frame Langstroth equipment
  • Holds 8 deep frames and foundation, or doubles as spacer space for certain feeders
  • Assembled boxes are stapled at the joints, not just glued, for long-term strength
  • Choose unassembled, assembled, or assembled and painted

Why Some Beekeepers Choose 8-Frame

An 8-frame deep holds less honey and brood than a 10-frame, which means more frequent inspections and swarm checks — but every box you lift weighs noticeably less. If you're managing hives solo or dealing with back or shoulder issues, that weight difference adds up fast over a season.

Seasonal Use

Add or replace deep boxes during spring buildup, when colonies expand fastest, or ahead of fall to make sure your bees have solid comb heading into winter.
