I have recently bought a five frame nuc. As I was short of equipment I placed them in a national hive and added frames of foundation and shut the entrance down. They were given 2 pints of syrup followed by a further 2 pints a week later especially as the weather has turned a bit iffy. They have been installed for two weeks now and are not really drawing much comb. Should I keep feeding? The queen seems to have enough laying space at present.
