We have updates on prices and NEW STOCK 
 

It's 2012! Can you believe it?

After a well deserved break over the Festive season we are happy to tell you we have new stock available.

There are unfortunately new prices on some items too... In fact, so far, ONLY 2 items!

In a nutshell, we now stock:

1) Pollen traps,
2) Grafting tools,
3) 8-way bee escapes,
4) Queen marking cage with plungers,
5) Queen clip catcher,
6) Refractometers and
7) Frame wire rolls of 1Kg each!!

 The new prices will be affecting the 20-frame honey extractor displayd below and soon to be the bee hives.

Prices on both of these items have gone up as do many things this time of year.
  
The Honey Extractor is now R7500.

Honey Extractor 20-frame Experts's advice
The new stock items largely focus on Queen Rearing activities such as the queen clip catcher which is a plastic see through clip that can be used to catch and store the queen while you get her prepped for marking or whatever.

The queen marking cage with plunger more or less says what it does...

The Grafting Tool is specialised equipment for queen rearing.      

Refractometers measure the moisture content of liquid especially honey in order to gather what level it is and therefore the quality.

8-way bee escapes are used to get bees out of the super chamber before harvesting the honey combs inside without hassle from the bees working on the frames.

It's all very exciting.
