As far  as such feeding causing problems downstream, I simply do not find
that that  to be true.  The colonies are invariably healthier and stronger
due to  the benefit of "proper" feeding.



By problems downstream I suspect Dee may be thinking rather longer term; in  
generations of queens rather than of workers.  By supplementary feeding you  
are doing nothing to de-select those that can't cope unaided with the local  
environment.
