Hello all, some practical advice would be appreciated. A 14x12 frame in the hive has for some reason bowed considerably. The bees had initially drawn out the foundation and it had been filled with stores. At some stage it failed and now the bees have compensated by drawing out a second layer of cells, again filled with stores. As you can imagine this heavy frame is quite unstable and may collapse completely, it is making inspections difficult as it sticks to adjacent frames. What would be the best course of action. Thanks for any suggestions.
