Build it, and they will comb.
A good idea on a bad way to feed.

I did a cutout Saturday and they had some half filled uncured honey in several combs.
I thought, hey, I'll just let my bees clean this out. So I threw these combs in the back of my strong hive and the cutout hive. Thinking it won't start robbing this way.
Whoops. Good idea, bad implementation.
A strong honeyflow started last week apparently. I went to check the 2 hives and both had cleaned up the combs and were now filling them with honey.
So I pulled them out of the hives and put them 10 feet away. This time, I know they won't store honey in them.
