Frame feeder 39x24

Capsule Feeder 39 × 24 – Convenient Colony Feeding (5 l)

Do you need to quickly replenish your colony's stores after honey harvest, prepare it for winter, or help during periods without nectar flow? Capsule feeder for frame size 39 × 24 made of durable black plastic offers large capacity and safe bee access to feed. This is a Czech product that fits precisely into supers for one of the most widespread frame sizes in the Czech Republic.

Safe Feed Access Without Floats

When feeding with syrup, it's important to minimize the risk of bee drowning. This feeder is therefore equipped with roughened inner walls that serve as a "ladder" and allow bees safe movement to the surface and back. Thanks to this, it's usually not necessary to add straw, floats, or expanded clay, which significantly simplifies maintenance and cleaning.

Easy Insertion into Super

The feeder is designed for practical work at the hive – in the super it takes up the space of two frames. Simply slide it to the edge or against the brood chamber and pour in the feed syrup. With a volume of approximately 5 liters, you can provide a larger amount at once, so you don't have to visit the hives as often – which is ideal especially during autumn feeding. The black plastic withstands apiary operations well and is easy to maintain and disinfect.

When to Use the Feeder

The feeder is suitable for supplementing food during periods when bees don't have natural nectar flow or need to quickly increase their stores:

1. Winter feeding: replenishing stores after honey extraction.
2. Spring stimulation: supporting colony development at the beginning of the season.
3. Dearth periods: bridging "dead" periods in nature.

You can use regular sugar syrup (sugar + water) as well as invert feeds.

Technical Parameters

Tip for beekeepers: On first use, you can lightly rub the inner surfaces with sugar syrup (or gently roughen them) so that the bees will "accept" the feeder more quickly and find their way to the feed more easily.
