No more random inspections to determine if your new queen is ready, you can track your queen rearing status right on this convenient dial attached to your hive equipment

The QueenRightDial - Mating Indicator - OUR NEWEST ADDITION TO THE QeenRightDial Tools was created by beekeepers for beekeepers to help provide a simple tool to track the status of your new queen(s) being raised in your hive. Track using the two part dial to mark the start point of the status of that new queen using a dial affixed to the surface of your hive body or lid. Ensuring you allow for proper timing from egg to newly mated queen laying the next generation.

*Note : This timeline is the typical timeline of the gestation period of a queen bee there are some factors that may require limited adjustment to the time periods but for the most part following this timeline will help a beekeeper understand what a new queen will be going through at what point in a queenless colony.

The QueenRightDial - Mating indicator also works interchangeably with the Status Indicator 2.0, using the same tray and can be swapped out with one of the unused dials while there isn't a mated queen present.
The decals used in this product are water and fade resistant.
