If a hive dies out over winter with frames that are fully combed can these frames be used to expand an existing hive or should one start with new frames and foundation?

Drawn comb is an asset. If there is no sign of brood disease it Is to your advantage to use it.

I would so long as it isnt diseased or extremely old, can get them the going faster than they normally would without it.
