Queen Marking Pen

Our Competitive Advantage MPD-15 Paint Markers are the queen marking pens we trust most. We choose them over other options for their quick-drying formula and long-lasting durability. These markers provide bold, clear markings that stay visible, even through the wear and tear of hive activities. Whether you're marking a queen for easy identification or keeping track of colony progress, these pens offer a reliable, professional solution.

Mark your queens according to the last digit of the year she was born using the following color-coding system:

Last Digit of the Year	Color
6 or 1	White
7 or 2	Yellow
8 or 3	Red
9 or 4	Green
0 or 5	Blue

For example:

• A queen born in 2025 (last digit is 5) would be marked with a blue dot.
• A queen born in 2024 (last digit is 4) would be marked with a green dot.
• A queen born in 2023 (last digit is 3) would be marked with a red dot.
