Queen Bee Rearing Kit
🐝 Stress-free breeding without tedious manual grafting
📈 Thriving hives through higher queen success rates
⏱️ Faster results with simple, reusable components
👑 Pride in raising your own superior queens
60-day money-back guarantee
We stand by our hive-tested gear. If you aren't breeding stronger queens within 60 days, we will give you a full refund. Your apiary success is our primary mission.
What is the 'No-Graft' benefit?
Traditional queen rearing requires moving tiny larvae with a needle, which is stressful for the bees and tough on your eyes. Our kit lets the queen lay directly into the plugs, removing manual handling entirely.
Are the components reusable?
Absolutely. All plastic components, including the comb box, plugs, and holders, are made from durable materials designed to be cleaned and reused for many breeding seasons.
How many queens can I raise?
The kit includes 115 plugs and cups, allowing you to manage a high-volume breeding cycle. You can raise dozens of queens simultaneously depending on your cell bar capacity.
What frames does it fit?
The comb box is designed to be mounted onto a standard Langstroth beehive frame. It integrates seamlessly into your existing equipment setup without major modifications.
From Egg to Empress
Follow these simple steps to transform your apiary with high-quality, self-raised queens.
