Description
When using plastic foundation it is very difficult to remove queen cells that were drawn from the side of the frame and keep them viable. With this tools you can place a Queen Cell Cage over each queen cell and wait for the virgins to emerge. Once they emerge you will couple have multiple virgin queens ready for a new split!
NOTE: these cages cannot capture queen cells drawn on the bottom of the frame like many swarm cells.
Cages are 3d printed and come in a variety of colors; red, white, blue, yellow, green, etc. If you are concerned about shipping dates for large orders, please contact us and we can give you an idea when they will be available.

Exactly what I needed and expected.
Feels very sturdy for it's shape and 3D printed nature. Seller threw in an extra gift in my purchase which was something I had debated buying too so I'm excited to use it all this spring!
Well made. Looks like a great little cage. I’ll be making good use of these next swarm season
Can’t wait to use them. Love the colors!
High quality product that should last a long time (if proper care is used). Great color selection, and though the bees don’t care I like the options.
