Fun With Frames - beekeeping

[@floydlenz2280]

Thanks for the info Rich.. I'll stay with the standard Langstroth , but I'm thinking of building a horizontal hive for fun. , using deep Lang frames..

[@southflbeekeepingwithrich]

I used 33 deep frames in a horizontal hive early in my beekeeping, and found that a spring swarm only expanded to about 24 frames leaving a lot of space for bugs in the back. Cut them down to mediums the next year and had a much better outcome. But that is where I am. If you have more nectar resources where you are it might work fine. All beekeeping is local.

Isn’t jumbo a deep+shallow?Paint sticks have beautiful wood found some that were birds eye maple. Feral bees like floor joists and ceilings 12x2 16 centers.

That would be another way to look at it that I had not thought of. I know of a barn with 2 inch by 16 inch by 4ft cavities that, left undisturbed, the bees filled in two years. Four separate colonies in one wall. I think the key word is undisturbed.
