If you have never tried your hand at breeding queens before, we recommend the Jenter system. It allows you to breed queens without the fiddly process of grafting larvae into queen cell cups. The Jenter system incorporates a plastic comb box with cover plate, cell plugs to go into the holes in the comb, a mini queen excluder, 'starter' cups to go over the plugs, and cup holders to hold the cups in place.

This is the complete Jenter queen breeding kit. It contains everything you need to get started with the Jenter system.

The Jenter starter kit contains everything from the advanced Jenter kit (40 cups, 115 cell cups, 115 plugs, insertion tool and breeding comb), plus ribbed cups, 10 protective cages, a wooden frame for the cup holders, an instructional DVD, and a sticker to grace the back of your car, so everybody knows you use the Jenter System (if they speak German, that is).

If you would like more information on the Jenter system, please take a look at this website.
