Why Choose Our Queen Cages?

Our queen cages are meticulously designed to meet the needs of modern beekeepers, offering a range of features that ensure the safety, efficiency, and ease of use. Here’s what makes our products stand out:

Key Features:

1. Durable and Lightweight Construction: Made from high-quality plastic, our cages are built to last while being easy to handle. The lightweight design ensures minimal stress during transport.

2. Ventilation and Feeding: Each cage features grid openings that allow for proper ventilation and enable the queen and worker bees to be fed honey and water during transit. This ensures the bees remain healthy and hydrated.

3. Safe Release Mechanism: Many of our cages include a hinged top for direct release of the queen and a tube for adding sugar candy or marshmallows. This allows worker bees to gradually release the queen, reducing the risk of rejection.

4. Precision Marking Tools: Our queen marking tubes and cages are designed for safe and precise identification of queen bees. Clear plastic and soft foam plungers ensure humane handling and easy visibility.

5. Customizable Options: We offer a variety of designs, including handheld marking cages and push-in cages, to suit different beekeeping needs. Whether you’re transporting a queen or marking her for identification, we have the right tool for you.

How It Works:

Queen cages are small containers designed to hold and transport the queen bee along with a few attendant worker bees. They are used when the queen is being moved from one location to another. The cages provide a controlled environment, allowing the queen to be safely introduced into a new hive without the risk of rejection or harm.

For marking, our push-in cages immobilize the queen gently between a screen and the comb, enabling you to mark her with precision. This method is quick, efficient, and minimizes stress on the queen.

Benefits of Using Queen Cages:

• High Acceptance Rate: Introducing the queen with her own brood and eggs, along with her nurse bees, creates a familiar environment that increases the likelihood of acceptance.
• Efficient Hive Management: Our tools simplify the process of queen introduction and marking, saving you time and effort.
• Enhanced Visibility: Clear plastic designs and one-handed operation ensure better visibility and ease of use.
• Versatility: Our cages are compatible with various hive types, including mating nucs, making them a versatile addition to your beekeeping toolkit.
