EMPTY WEIGHT

A 2 kg crown-board feeder for syrup or liquid feed, without opening up the whole hive.

Feeding from an open container inside the hive brings two familiar problems: bees drown in the syrup, and the smell draws robbers. This feeder sits between the roof and the frames and designs both of them out.

01 · INSTALLATION

It goes in the space you already have

It is built as a crown board: it rests between the roof and the frames, exactly where an ordinary crown board would sit. No empty super, no modification to the hive.

02 · HIVE HEALTH

Check the level without opening up

The lid is clear, so you read the feed level at a glance without lifting the crown board or chilling the brood nest. The bees come up through the centre and drink from the inner rim, so they are not landing in the syrup. And because it rests straight on the frames, the feed sits close to the cluster and in the warm part of the hive: bees that have to cross a cold gap to reach syrup lose mobility, and that is where drowning happens.

03 · CLEANING

Scrape it, wash it, stack it

Syrup crystallises and the feeder needs cleaning between uses: scrape it out, wash with pressurised water at 60 °C and use a proper disinfectant. The units nest into one another, so out of season they take a fraction of the shelf space.

04 · BEFORE YOU BUY

What arrives, and what does not

You are buying the feeder and its clear lid on their own. Feed is separate — and it is worth taking the feeder off at the end of the feeding season rather than leaving it in place with residue inside. The feeder helps you administer feed cleanly; how much and when to give it depends on stores, weather and what you are aiming for, not on the container.
