Hello Bee Folks,
   I was away for about a week. Got back and checked my bees, they are
fine. I feed with one gallon pails above the brood chamber, while I was
gone the bees built comb using the feed pails as a brace. I removed the
pails but now have no idea how to correct the problem I have.
  The brood chamber still has foundation open and not drawn out but the
bees have built a fine maze of comb in the upper empty super. There is
brood and honey in this comb. What can I do to save the brood. There is
space yet for about 7 frames with foundation. Should I place those
frames in there now?  Then remove the comb as it is emptied of
brood?
  Why didn't the bees use the frames below first? I figured I had time
before needing to place frames in the upper super. Guess the bees had
other ideas.
   What do I do? Destroy the comb and brood and put in the frames? Or is
there a way to use this comb from the two hives to start a nuc? I seem
to continue to make mistakes. One day I will have it right.
 
Thanks for your time...
