Hit or Miss
I don't think that there is anything wrong with the product as it seems like it is well made. The problem I believe is with the system and how it works. I used it three times to make queens. The first time the bees removed the eggs from the cells after the queen was released. The second time the system work but out of the 110 cells, only may 50 of them had viable eggs in them so it was a huge waste of cells. Out of those 50, I only had room for 25, so again, a huge waste of cells. The third time I used it I made sure that I followed every step according to the instructions. Again, the bees removed the eggs when I released the queen. Perhaps there is a trick to learning and using the system but I purchased this so I didn't have to learn a trick to make queens.Currently, I don't use the system anymore. I bought a couple of Chinese grafting tools and learned how to graft. After three attempts I went from killing around 10 larvae per attempt to maybe 1 or 2. It looks harder than it actually is to graft.

Just learn to graft.
What a PITA! I put the Nicotine system in the hive and allowed the bees to polish the cells. I found the queen the next day and placed her inside. The queen layed the cells up and I removed her the following day. The day after I checked and found ALL of the eggs had been removed. I've never used it again, I'll just continue to graft.

Bees keeps moving the eggs
I like that it's all in one tool, but it did not work on my hive, once i remove the queen, the workers remove the eggs and transfer them leaving the cups empty. I tried twice and had the same results, i guess i can try again in spring

convenient kit for rearing queens
This allows us to start from eggs, which is essential for some types of experiments.doing so by hand, without the kit is possible but very difficultthe convenience of using the kit makes it worthwhile
