Getting the balance right...feeding a new nuc

[fiat500bee]

I just read a warning that overfeeding might lead to a newly acquired nuc storing too much and presumably running short on brood-space. I feel that our bees need to draw some comb although I'm aware that decision is theirs to make. I've been feeding them believing that might help with drawing foundation....maybe I should pause it?

Are they still in a nuc or have you put them into a hive? If in a hive, feeding to simulate a flow encourages wax drawing. If comb has been drawn, stop feeding and observe the local forage situation.
