Abstract
This work was carried out to study the following aims: (1) Evaluation of a new device ( Half- Ball-Cage with queen excluder) on the acceptance percentage (%) and the weight of emerged virgin queens and produced from the following treatment colonies: a – Queenright colonies ready for supersedure. b- Queenright colonies ready for swarming. c- Queenless colonies. d- Normal queenright colonies chosen it randomly from the apiary colonies. (2) The effect of normal grafting ( Doolittle method) using the new cage (Half- Ball-Cage with queen excluder) as well as Zohairy method (modified Jenter) on the acceptance percentage (%) and the weight of emerged virgin queens.
The results showed that, queenright colonies ready for supersedure and swarming recorded the highest acceptance percentage among the tested colonies. While the normal queenright colonies and queenless colonies indicated the lowest acceptance percentage. The queens reared in queenright colonies ready for supersedure and normal queenright colonies recorded the highest valuesof queen weights. On the other hand queenless  queenright colonies ready for swarming showed the lowest values. Zohairy method (modified Jenter) recorded higher levels of acceptance percentage and queen weight than the normal grafting method by using the new cage.
