Abstract: There is provided a hive body or a kit for assembling a hive body for use in a beehive enclosure, comprising: panels defining an interior space and an aperture configured to allow movement of the bees into the interior space; a brood chamber emplaced within the interior space, the brood chamber defining an internal cavity adapted for housing comb frames, and being displaceable between a stored position within the interior space and an inspection position when said brood chamber is displaced outwards from within the interior space to permit a beekeeper access to internal cavity of the brood chamber; and a rear door moveable between a closed position to an open position which enables the brood chamber to be moved into the inspection position where the beekeeper can have access to internal cavity of the brood chamber to maintain the bees.
