EZB Queen Pen

Great Tool for Queen Breeders and Hobby Beekeepers

The EZB Queen Pen marking tool allows you to transfer your queen easily from her cage to a marking plunger for precise marking, and then back to her cage - all without the need for direct handling.

Instructions:

1. Place marking cage in Queen Pen with gate open and plunger back.
2. Remove plug, or cap, from queen cage and quickly place it properly in the Queen Pen.
3. Allow the queen bee to walk into the marking cage.  It may help to rotate the Queen Pen.  
4. Once the queen bee is inside the marking cage, shut the gate.
5. Now you can remove the marking cage and mark your queen.  Allow paint to dry.
6. Make sure the queen cage is still in place and then place marking cage back in Queen Pen. 
7. Open the gate and allow the queen bee to crawl back into the queen cage.  You can move the plunger to limit the amount of free space is available to the queen bee thereby coaxing her toward the tunnel.  
8. Once the queen bee is back in the queen cage, remove the queen cage from the Queen Pen and quickly close the cap or insert the plug.
9. Now your marked queen is ready for introduction to the colony.

Features:

Accommodates several common queen cages and marking cages.
