Bought a couple of extractors from an old bee keeper. Came with 2 live hives. Hauled them home and went to work them and found that he had used super frames in deeps. There is a real mess of comb in these hives, and I'm really at a loss on how to get them straightened out.
I'm thinking that it may be next spring that I get them fixed. If I wait until late winter, they will move up into an upper deep that has the correct frames installed and I'll pull the empty bottom frames and fix the comb.
I thought about just trimming them down and putting them in super bodies, but there is a ton of brood in the hanging comb.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
