Hi Ang. Got a question. When you add a super under the hive. What I gather is that u have sticks as top bars underneath that are waxed? But my question is this. Will the bees build comb and attach the upper comb to the lower comb? Also 1 more question. If the super was added right away so u had two boxes on each other right at the beginning. How would the combs turn out? Would the bees just continue combs all the way to the bottom or do the bees stop at each skewer?

I know this is an older video but why do you "super" under the brood nest? Is that to create more room for brood instead of honey? Thanks.

How do you start a hive like this if you did not have sorter comb? Do you dip sticks in wax and shake bees in it with queen?

yep, dip skewers in wax, and add bees and a queen. Or do a cut out from a swarm trap into this box. Or use this as a swarm trap!
