Using a bucket for feeding honey bees has become very popular as it is a way to provide sugar syrup for bees without having to open the hive. Our bucket feeders are available in a round 65 mil, 1-gallon bucket feeder with a pre-drilled hole in the lid and tint plugs.

 

Note:

  • 100% food grade plastic
  • We recommend placing an empty hive body around the feeder below your outer cover to prevent robbing
  • If you don’t fill your bucket all the way, a lot of syrup will stream out when you flip it

 

How to Feed Sugar Syrup:

Spring Feeding: Create a 1:1 syrup using 1 lb. water (2 cups) to 1lb. sugar.

Fall Feeding: Make a 2:1 syrup using 2 lb. sugar per 1 lb. of water.
