The Queen Dot-Her – Queen Bee Marking Tool

Description

🐝 Designed by a Master Beekeeper  👑 Mark your queens with confidence.

The Queen Dot-Her — pronounced “Dotter” — is a professional-grade marking tool designed by a Master Beekeeper to eliminate the stress of queen marking. Traditional push-down cages can be cumbersome and sometimes risk injury to the queen; the Queen Dot-Her provides a steady, ergonomic alternative that gives you total control.

Key Features:

✅ Master Beekeeper Designed: Every angle of this tool has been tested in the apiary to ensure it performs under real-world conditions.

🎯 Angled Marking Head: Specifically engineered for precision dot placement, allowing you to mark the thorax clearly while the queen is safely secured.

✋ Ergonomic Handle: The sturdy 3D-printed handle fits comfortably in your hand, providing the stability needed for steady, delicate work.

💪 Built to Last: Printed in high-quality PETG, making it durable, heat-resistant, and UV-stable for long-term use in the field.

🧰 Integrated Band Storage: Features a dedicated storage area on the tool for spare elastics, so you’re never caught unprepared in the bee yard.

⚠️ NOTE: Use the one on the end, with the elastic going under, to mark the queen. The smaller top holder is for extra bands.

How to Use:

1. 🐝 Isolate the queen on the frame.
2. 👑 Gently place the marking band over the queen’s abdomen to hold her securely against the comb.
3. 🖊️ Use the open space provided by the angled head to apply a clean dot to the thorax with your marking pen.

✨ Stop chasing your queens and start marking with precision.
