Queen Marking Tube

Crafted for beekeepers aiming to manage their hives more effectively, the Queen Marking Tube is an essential tool that ensures the quick and gentle handling of queen bees. This device is constructed from transparent plastic, providing a clear view to accurately identify and mark your queen, enhancing the ease of hive management and breeding practices. Equipped with a foam-padded plunger, it tenderly secures the queen against the built-in screen, minimizing stress and risk of injury during the marking process. This feature allows for a precise placement of a distinguishing mark on her thorax using a queen marking pen (sold separately), facilitating her easy identification among the colony. The tube's generous dimensions of 1-1/2" in width accommodate queens of various sizes, making it a versatile and indispensable tool for beekeepers dedicated to the health and organization of their hives.
