Hi all,
OK-how about answering a question on spacing-granted, it will be pure
speculation, but have a go!
Why, when 9 frames of foundation are put in the brood chamber, the bees
build brace comb all over the place, but when 9 frames of foundation are put
on in a super, they draw it out straight and clean-no brace comb to make a
mess when the frames are removed.  Was this super a fluke?  I know the goof
in the brood chamber was mine.  The super-less of an issue because it is
being extracted.
