Detailed Description

Unlike tube-style marking cages, the Round Push In Queen Marking Cage allows you to mark your queen directly on the comb. This method eliminates the need to handle or remove the queen, reducing stress for both her and the colony.

To use, simply place the cage over the queen and push it gently into the comb. Once secured, you can safely mark her thorax before releasing her back into the hive. It’s a straightforward design that is lightweight, reusable, and favored by beekeepers for its simplicity and effectiveness.
