>Are the boxes you use truly 7 frame boxes or are they 8 frame or 10 frame boxes with only 7 frames?<
They're 7 frame boxes made out of 2x lumber - either cedar or pine. The
clusters in those boxes tend to act like other hives - they'll take
advantage of sun heating up south and west walls, but overall they
consume food from all the frames.
