I know I can open sugar feed, or instead of feeding each hive, putting sugar water out for all the hives in the area to take from, but can I do that for pollen as well? Just mix up a pollen patty and throw it on my back porch?

Open feeding of pollen-sub is done with the dry product.

Thanks BeeCurious. Can you tell me how this is done?

I've taken some MegaBee in powder form and put it in a bowl in the back yard, they never came to get it. I then tried to take some fresh pollen http://www.brushymountainbeefarm.com/1-lbFresh-Pollen/productinfo/618/ crushed it up into a powder form, put that in a bowl and put it on the back porch, they never came to get it.

Any suggestions?

Here is a dry pollen feeder. We set it on two old supers and then a lid. The bees stop using it when the dandies and such start
