ABSTRACT:
A feeding container for bees supports frames in a hollow interior and is placed in the interior of a beehive, to both feed bees and divide the interior. The feeding container is parallelepiped in shape with an open top and a capacity to hold a large amount of feed and a plurality of frames, having standard Langstroth dimensions. The feeding container leaves a space of approximately 3 millimeters between its ends and the side walls of a beehive. The container is supported on a floor of the hive by legs formed in the container to provide a separation of about 8 millimeters from the floor to the base of the feeding container base to allow bees to crawl between the divided interior.
