I know (read repeatedly) that honey locked hives can be an issue.
I’ve also read that in a strong flow the brood area can be filled with nectar, and moved later. But will bees move capped honey, I suspect not.
But if I’m finding a few capped frames in the brood areas, then I’m thinking of moving them up to provide room for the queen.
My plan is for all hives to have two ¾ boxes for winter.
Thanks
