Item details

There are about 270 species of bees in Britain, just under 250 of which are solitary bees that live alone, although often nest close to one another. Installing a B-Happy home is a great way to help solitary bees. Unlike honeybees and bumblebees, solitary bees live and build their nests alone, they do not produce honey, do not have a queen, and do not live in hives. Each B-Happy Home contains cavities in which solitary bees can lay their eggs before sealing the entrance with mud and chewed-up vegetation. The offspring will emerge the following spring and the cycle will begin again. Each cavity goes part way into the home, which is solid at the back. Each one includes a fact sheet together with fitting kit. Plaster cast, made to order so please allow up to 5 working day before dispatch date. Size H27 x W16 x D6 cm

I wanted to create something a bit different from the normal and set to work. Once I was happy with my clay B-Hive I then made a silicone mould and soon was able to start casting. I am currently working on a variety of unique B-Happy homes which will include a B-Happy Boot.
