APIDEA Mating Hive Top Feeder – Blue
Provide your mating nuc with a reliable source of supplementary feed using the APIDEA Mating Hive Top Feeder – Blue. Designed specifically for use with the APIDEA Mating Hive system, this convenient accessory allows you to feed your bees with minimal disturbance, helping to maintain strong and healthy colonies throughout the queen rearing process.
Manufactured from durable, food-safe plastic and finished in blue to match compatible APIDEA equipment, the top feeder fits securely above the brood chamber and offers increased feeding capacity compared with the standard internal feeder. It is suitable for syrup or fondant and is designed to allow safe bee access while reducing waste and the risk of drowning.
The blue colour is ideal for beekeepers who use colour-coded mating hives, making identification easier and helping to minimise drifting between colonies in larger queen breeding operations.
