Nicot Queen Rearing System
The Nicot System Kit for Queen Rearing is designed to facilitate egg laying for the purpose of raising queens. This particular kit offers a solution that allows the queen to lay eggs directly into plastic plugs, reducing any risks associated with grafting while also ensuring that larvae are at the correct age stage. The results produced by this system are reliable and abundant as it involves placing your laying queen beneath the queen excluder in your cup kit box. Constructed using high-quality plastic, this non-toxic and lightweight kit does not harm bees. While all components can be reused except for brown cell cups, they are sturdy and long-lasting enough to withstand wear and tear. After developing virgin queen cells, they can then be introduced into her new colony with ease.
How to use No Graft Queen Rearing Kit:
The Queen Rearing Nicot System Kit is easy to use and enables you to raise your own queen bees without the need for complicated techniques such as grafting or direct manipulation of larvae. These are the steps involved:
- 1. Fit 110 brown cell starter cups into the comb box, which should be inserted into a frame.
- 2. Confine the queen in the front of the cage so that she can lay eggs in each one of those cells, then release her after a day. When newly hatched larvae are ready (on day 4), you can transfer them elsewhere.
- 3. Take out each cell starter cup and insert it into a suitable holder that will allow you to handle them more easily later on.
- 4. Use a cell bar holder to attach these holders onto a cell bar, making sure everything fits securely.
- 5. Transfer your setup – now consisting of multiple cells holding eggs/larvae – onto an established colony where new queens can develop and mature properly.
With this efficient system, beekeeping enthusiasts no longer have to struggle with fussy methods just to promote healthy bee populations!
