Hi Murray:
When I use inverted pail feeders, I carry an empty pail with me. I invert
the full pail and put it on the empty one for about 10 seconds. The
spillage is eliminated and the empty pail becomes a full pail after about
40 hives are fed. The leakage is minimized if the pails are filled nearly
full.
