I am new to beekeeping and am in the process of organizing my gear for my first two hives. A friend of mine was recently attended a lecture put on by a local beekeeper. The beekeeper brought with him a quantity of frames filled with foundation. The foundation had two holes through it which were described as "passageways" for the bees. In all the research I have done I have never heard mention of these "passageways", in fact the foundation I purchased ( Rite cell) has no such passageways. Are these passageways needed in any way by the bees ? Should I incorporate them into my frames/ foundation ? ____________________________________________ [log in to unmask]
