HIVE ALIVE Pollen Patty for Honey Bees – 10lb (10x1lb) Pollen Patties and Bee Food for Spring with 4% Real USA Pollen, Seaweed and Amino Acids to Support Brood and Colony Health
$68.99
- For a Thriving Colony – Real Pollen from the USA: Trusted by beekeepers worldwide, Hive Alive Bee Pollen Patties are proven to maintain colony health, strength, and survival. Made with 4% USA pollen (and no animal protein), it’s as safe and nutritious as what bees consume in nature, making it a preferred method for supplementing colony nutrition
- The Right Ratio of Nutrients for Brood Rearing: Pollen patties for bees contain a concentrated full dose of Hive Alive liquid, shown to increase bee gut health, increase colony population, increase brood production, improve honey production, and help colonies stay strong for overwintering. Along with essential amino acids and seaweed extracts, it’s a readily available source of nutrition critical for health and survival after laying
- Optimal Nutrition All Year: Use Hive bee food patties to supplement pollen in times of dearth, to increase population and production throughout the year, to respond to emergency situations, and to speed stress recovery
- 4% or 15%? The % of pollen you choose depends on the strength of your hives and your desired rate of brood buildup. In spring, a 15% ratio encourages rapid buildup in preparation for upcoming honey flow. If you begin feeding early, a 4% ratio suffices until pollen becomes available. Pollen is the best source of protein for bees so where possible, we recommend feeding the 15% ratio
- Simple to Use: Gently smoke the bees down and place a patty directly over the frames as close to brood as possible. The bees will remove the paper as needed to access the patty. The blend of real pollen and Hive Alive has bees feeding quickly, reducing the risk of unwanted visitors associated with other feeding patties
