Mother Lode Deep 1-Gallon In-Hive Feeder Set with Cap-n-Ladder (9 5/8″ × 2″)
Feed a full gallon of syrup in one fill — and let your bees drink it safely. This deep in-hive feeder hangs inside your hive like a frame, with a snap-on cap and mesh ladders that keep bees out of the syrup until it's time to climb in.
Features
- Holds approximately 1 gallon (96 oz) of syrup
- Replaces 1 frame in a deep hive body
- Includes snap-on cap with built-in mesh ladders
- Textured inner walls give bees traction
- Heavy-duty black polypropylene
- Free clips included
- Made in the USA
How it works
Hang the feeder between frames in your deep hive body just like a regular frame. Snap the support bars into place across the trough opening, insert the mesh ladders, and snap the cap on top. Pour syrup through the gap in the cap. Bees enter through the cap, climb down the mesh ladders, drink, and climb back out — without drowning. The cap keeps debris out and slows robbing.

FAQ
Will this fit a medium or shallow hive body? No — sized for deep hive bodies only. For mediums, look at the Mother Lode Medium feeders.
Do I need to buy the cap-n-ladder separately? No, it's included with this set.
How is this different from the 2-gallon set? Half the syrup capacity in a narrower (2″) profile that replaces just 1 frame instead of up to 2.
