Description
New look same great GOODNESS!
Our Bee Builder Protein Patties support your bees’ nutritional needs when quality natural pollen is in short supply. Proteins, fats, and amino acids are essential for building more bees and keeping healthy brood. Our patties are designed to build colonies quickly, support weak hives, and supply the extra nutrition needed for cell builders or breeder colonies.
It’s taken us 5 years to perfect this recipe and now we have perfected the delivery. Bulk buckets. Simple. Easy. Yes!
You can think of it as “Bee Grub in a TUB!” (Thanks Peter Smith form Whirakee Woodware for that one!)
Our Protein Patty comes in three easy to manage sizes: 1kg, 3kg, 6kg. 12 kg is available upon request so please email or call us for this.
The bulk container lets you judge how much feed to put in a hive. We recommend about a golf ball size per frame of brood and place as close to the nurse bees as possible. On top of the brood nest works great. The most important thing is that you give bees only what they can eat in about 3-5 days to prevent small hive beetle activity. If you would really like patties, you can wrap them yourself! Easy Peasy.
