Daddy bought a 3 story hive last week. Two deep brood boxes and a shallow super. When he checked it before bringing it home, he lifted the honey super and everything looked good.
We gave it a more thourogh checking after we got it home. The super was mostly capped honey and the top deep chamber was full of mostly capped brood.
However when we got to the lower deep it had nothing in it except bees, empty drawn comb and some undrawn foundation. We switched places with the two deeps hoping the queen will move up into the empty box now that it is above her.
My question is how often do y'all rotate the brood boxes if you run more than one?
Thanks Johnny
