Why take it out?Well I'm thinking that with supers over half full (building from the centre out) now might be a good time to remove QX with a flow going on.
Edit: Plus the Queen will be slowing down also.
Then fill the lower super with honey framesI've seen some bees struggle to get through them. Just thought I would make it easier for them.
They can't with Porter escapes, they'll jam them right up and trap the workers in the supers too, not so bad with Rhombus escapes but it can happenWhile on the subject, I assume drones will be up in the supers also when QX is removed. Can they fit through the bee escapes when you want to remove supers?
