All,

I have dug around looking in the list serv about ways for a small hobby beekeeper to feed his bees in the winter.  I have see examples of feeding sugar, light corn syrup, honey, etc.

I have an idea, want to get the world of beekeeping opinion.

What if I take a few deep frames that have no foundation, screen part of it in like a syrup feeder, and fill it with sugar cubes then place it close to the clusters in my hives?

Your thoughts?

Thanks,

Tim
