The Importance of Winter Feed for Bees
As the winter season approaches, it is crucial for beekeepers to provide their colonies with the necessary nutrition to ensure their survival and productivity. Bees face many challenges during the colder months, including limited food sources and increased energy expenditure to maintain hive temperatures.
At Medlin Equipment, we understand the importance of bee nutrition, especially during the winter season. Our specialized winter feed products are designed to meet the dietary needs of bees, helping them stay healthy and strong throughout the colder months.
Winter Feed Options
1. Honeybee Fondant
Our Honeybee Fondant is a top choice for winter feed, with its high sugar content and essential nutrients. This easy-to-use feed is made from all-natural ingredients, ensuring the highest quality for your bees. Simply place the fondant on top of the frames, and your bees will have access to a reliable food source throughout the winter.
2. Bee Candy Boards
Another popular option for winter feeding is our Bee Candy Boards. These boards are specially formulated with a blend of sugar, pollen, and other nutrients to provide a balanced diet for your bees. The candy boards are placed above the cluster of bees inside the hive, allowing them to access the feed easily.
3. Pollen Patties
Pollen is a vital source of protein for bees, and during the winter months, natural pollen becomes scarce. Our Pollen Patties are an excellent alternative, providing bees with a nutritious supplement to support brood rearing and overall hive strength. The patties can be placed directly on the top bars of the frames.
