DRONE plastic foundation differs from ordinary foundation in that the cell size is larger, specifically designed for drone brood production. The distinctive pink color makes it easy to identify in the hive at a glance.
Key Uses:
- Queen rearing operations and mating nucleus colonies
- Varroa mite management through drone brood trapping
- Maintaining genetic diversity in your apiary
- Easier honey extraction – larger cells make spinning thick honey varieties like tupelo, buckwheat, or late-season goldenrod significantly easier (use a queen excluder to keep brood out of honey supers)
Why Plastic Foundation?
- Durable and resistant to hive tool damage
- Reusable season after season – more cost-effective long-term
- Wax moth and rodent-proof – safe storage at any temperature
- No blowouts during extraction
Specifications:
- Frame dimensions: 19" W × 9 ⅛" H (standard deep Langstroth size)
They come fully pre-assembled, with the pink food grade Drone foundation installed and are pre-coated with beeswax to save you time.
