I would generally say, yes feed new colonies. However it is possible to overfeed so there is no room for the queen to lay. Therefore regular inspections are necessary. There is no need to fill them so much that a small colony with 4 frames of brood has 6 frames of syrup stored.
Look to see whether there is liquid stores in the hive and how many frames of stores there are. There should also be pollen of various colours around the brood indication a varied diet. You can also see whether the larvae are well-fed or a bit 'dry'. These ones look nice and moist.

May your bees read the same books as you do.
