Title: In hive incubator
Post by: Ross on March 20, 2006, 10:24:49 pm

I picked this up from another beekeeper.  Simple in hive incubator for Jenter or other cell raising systems.

Keeps the new queens captive as they hatch and allows the workers to care for them.  Similar to cell protectors.  Just a 2x4 with the appropriate sized holes for your cell cups, then curved on the table saw.
