Hi, All! I have been trying to feed my nuc hives with honey syrup using a small jar for
quite awhile. Poking holes on the lid will not work for me. Many times the syrup either ended up
on the ground or sticking to the bees inside the hive.
So I thought to make a simple version of what might work with an inside hive
hanging jar feeder. The material list are: A hanger wire, quart jar, duct tapes, hanging strings,
plastic sand which bag cut in half, rubber band, mop wicks, and drinking straw.
Here are the pics:
