4 Litre (1 Gallon) Shallow Rapid Feeder
(Ideal for Year Round Feeding, Especially the Big Pre-Winter Feed
Let me know if you see this cheaper on the internet!
'Due to the shallow nature of this feeder (55mm or 2.2 inches high) it can fit under the rooves of many bee hives
without the need of an Eak or Spacer. The large 4 litre (1 gallon) capacity  makes it ideal for large quick feeds. Ideal for reducing the number of feeds needed from using smaller capacity feeders.
This is one of the most popular methods of effectively feeding your bees. Its advantages include:
* Takes up to 4 litres (8 pints) of feed at a time.
* Transparent cup allows you to see if bees are feeding.
* The feeder can quickly and easily be refilled without disturbing your colony.
*  Little or no fatalities through drowning due to correct aperture and ridges in the cone for grip.
* Fits under many rooves on existing crown board breather/feeder holes.
'Personally, I find this feeder useful to stimulate the colony and encourage egg laying in early spring so as to give them the earliest possible start to the season, and strengthening a weak or small colony.
For this feed, many beekeepers give them a weaker solution which bees find more agreeable at this time of the season. I am amongst many who use a solution of around 2 pints of water to 1 bag (1Kg) of granulated sugar (ideally cane sugar). This solution normally increases in strength later in the season, and becomes more like 1 pint to 1kg for the winter feed in the Autumn'
(There are also many other recipes, potions and feeds used !)
Measures 310mm (12.25 inches) wide and 380mm (15 inches) long. The feeder hole is 44mm (1.5 inches)
