I bit the bullet and bought a couple of top feeders from Mann Lake. I have one on the new split and put one on my weakest hive at the farm. I finally got around to putting 3 gallons in it today. The bees cannot get to you thru the screen. The convenience factor is definitely something to consider. All I'd do is pick up the top and fill them.I will let y'all know how they work in a couple of weeks. I can report the new split has lot of bees in the top getting syrup.


Don't give up, don't ever give up!
