Hi - another question about a hive with brood in the supers… I have a hive that is absolutely booming. It wintered in two deeps and a medium super. Two weeks ago I looked at it and it had a mixture of brood and honey in the top super, brood and stores in the top deep, and not much in the bottom deep. I added a second super on top without a QE to give them more room to store honey as they're going crazy now. Today I looked at it and that super has a ton of brood in it, including a couple frames of drone that they built from foundation less frames.
I presume I could just wait and let them sort it out, but I'm a bit impatient to get things right again. I'm thinking about moving the two supers to the bottom of the hive, with the empty deep above it and the other deep on top. Then add a QE and put another super on top. How's that sound? thanks!
