EZPZ Medium Queen Banker

Safely bank up to 10 queens in the hive using this compact EZPZ medium queen banker. Designed to snap into a groove-top Langstroth deep frame, it provides a secure and reusable solution for holding virgin or mated queens. Perfect for smaller operations, queen sales, or insemination timing when you prefer to use nurse bees over an incubator.

Key Features and Benefits

Smart, space-efficient queen banking right inside your hive.

• Banks 10 Queens: Holds up to 10 EZPZ queen cages per banker—20 when you install two in a frame.

• Fits Deep Frames: Snaps into groove-top Langstroth deep frames typically used with plastic foundation.

• Flexible Placement: Install in the center or double up to maximize queen storage.

• Supports Virgins or Mated: Ideal for short-term queen holding before use or pickup.

• Sturdy PETG Plastic: Made for repeat use under hive conditions without warping or wear.

Usage Instructions

Snap the banker into the groove of a deep Langstroth frame, ideally during frame assembly while the bottom bar is still flexible. Place it near the center, and if using two bankers, install both before the frame is nailed or glued. Secure with wax or tape if needed. Add EZPZ queen cages and install the frame in a hive with ample nurse bees.

Detailed Description

The EZPZ medium queen banker provides a controlled and efficient method for storing queens inside the hive using nurse bees for care. Whether you're banking virgins ahead of insemination or holding mated queens before transfer, this setup gives you flexibility without requiring an incubator. Each unit holds 10 EZPZ queen cages and is designed to fit snugly into groove-top frames.

The banker is made of PETG plastic for hive-safe durability and longevity. Install during frame assembly for the best fit—frames do not flex enough to install two units afterward. Depending on your style, you can use one banker to center queens in the hive or double up for full-capacity banking.
