Hello Everyone
Is it possible to overfeed your bees over winter?!
I gave my hives a full super each and they still took down fondant and
pollen patties and now the still have the supers full of sugar feed in
frames and are still munching the patties!
When the spring flow begins, should I take off the supers completely so
they may start filling 'real honey' in an empty super placed directly above
brood boxes?!
One of the hives has already got around 3-4 frames of sealed brood??!!
Any advice is helpful as I messed up last year loosing a queen through
swarming mistaking for supercedure, squashing one and one was a drone
layer:(
