Cupkit Queen Rearing Box This very clever system covers all aspects of queen rearing, achieving the benefits of grafting without the difficulties. This kit consists of: 1 Nicot Type Cupkit box 110 Brown Queen Cell Cups 10 Hair Roller Cages 10 Brown Cell Bar Blocks 10 Cream Cup Caps 1 Queen clip 1 Queen Marking tube with plunger 5 Queen introduction/travel Cages The System works by placing your laying queen beneath the queen excluder of your Nicot Cupkit box. The queen will then lay eggs in the brown cups provided. After 24 hours behind the excluder the queen is released back into the general population of the hive. The benefit of this is that there is no need for grafting and you have an exact date that the eggs were layed which is the beginning of your queen rearing timeline. Capped queen cells can be moved to the MATING HIVE or the Hair roller cages can be used to protect and collect the virgin queens.
