- Efficient queen mating: This hive box is designed for use with smaller bee populations, allowing you to breed queens without disrupting the entire colony's honey production. - Enhanced security: The sliding front panel effectively covers the ventilation net or entrance, facilitating easy relocation to the mating hive while providing a secure feeding area at the back, separated by a queen excluder. - Superior thermal insulation: With thermal insulation performance 3.5 times better than traditional wooden materials, this hive box allows for successful queen breeding in varying climates, from early spring to hot summer and late autumn. - Improved queen development: The reduced number of worker bees promotes optimal queen development, resulting in healthier queens and a well-structured spherical colony. Use scenarios: - Ideal for beekeepers looking to breed queens while maintaining honey production during the spring and autumn months. - Perfect for small-scale operations needing an efficient and secure method for queen mating without large-scale colony disruption. - Suited for locations with fluctuating temperatures, ensuring that queen breeding remains effective year-round.
