Is this just a warre practice, or can this be done with Langstoth? Are there other changes to management what must be done?
It's my understanding that the queen prefers to lay brood beside existing brood, and that this behavior prevents her from laying all over. On the other hand, I've heard that people do get brood in their honey supers when not using an excluder. What's the story?
Does the presence of brood in the honey ruin it? Is this something that one accepts as part of a non-exlucer practice? What does it mean to the final product?
thanks in advance
