Bee Lively Pollen Patty With Beekeepers Choice Feeding Stimulant 1 Patty
Bee Lively pollen patties pair real bee pollen with Beekeepers Choice feeding stimulant — a protein boost that gets a colony rearing brood when natural pollen is scarce in late winter and early spring. Sold as a single patty.
Features
- About 15% real bee pollen
- Infused with Beekeepers Choice feeding stimulant to drive intake
- Protein and nutrients for brood rearing
- Encourages feeding and colony build-up
- Single patty
How it works in real life
A colony needs incoming protein to raise brood. When little pollen is coming in — late winter, early spring, or a summer dearth — a pollen patty fills the gap. Lay the patty flat across the top bars of the brood box, directly over the cluster, and the feeding stimulant encourages the bees to work through it. Check it on your next inspection and replace it as they consume it. In small-hive-beetle country, give only as much as the colony clears in a week or two, since beetles will breed in an unattended patty.
Before you order
This is a single patty. For an apiary, the 10-pack is the better value. Feed when natural pollen is scarce and the colony is rearing brood.

FAQ
When should I feed pollen patties?
When natural pollen is scarce and you want the colony rearing brood — typically late winter into early spring, or during a summer dearth.
Where does the patty go?
Flat across the top bars, directly over the cluster, so the bees can reach it easily.
Single patty or the 10-pack?
This listing is one patty; the 10-pack is more economical for multiple hives.
