Frame Feeder
Frame Feeders are placed inside the hive and close to the bees. They sit in the same position as a frame and provide approximately a gallon of liquid feed to the hive.
These molded plastic feeders often come with a sealed lid and ladder system that prevents drowning. Use these feeders in Spring and Fall for feeding sugar syrup and nutritional additives OR as a water source in Summertime.
Benefits:
- sits inside the hive where bees have easy access to supplemental food
- sealed top prevents drowning and warping of the frame feeder
- ideal for feeding nucs, splits and swarm colonies
Available sizes:
Single Frame - comes with wood cover and mesh tubes/ladders
Double Frame - takes two frames of space, has extra capacity
Skinny Frame - same width as one frame; has ridged edges for bees to climb
