I am going to change my one hive from 10 frames, one deep and one medium to 8 frame mediums. I need to cut out my deep drawn frames and rubber and them into the new frames. Will the bees reattach the wax to the new frames? Do I need to remove the rubber bands at some time?
Because it is spring, will all the brood be in the upper medium and if so can I just move med frames to the 8 box and go foundationless when I add an upper. Could this work as swarm prevention similar to checker boarding? Or like starting a package?
What if there is brood in the lower deep frames?
Thanks for the help
