Seems like the blog software gets erratic when the blog gets long. This is a continuation of the previous entry, so you should read it first; it has comb 1 - 6. Here's 7 - 10:
 |
| 7. Similar to 6; some drone cells on left; even more honey cells; also broke when I moved it. It's hard to see but honey comb does not follow bar well. \Brood comb shows much more discipline. |
 |
| 8. Same as 7, but more honey cells. |
 |
| 9. Weird; odd shape; lots of drone cells; that's my finger at upper left. |
 |
| 10. Only honey; smaller than the rest. |
Note: there was NO honey anywhere in the hive; when I took this comb out and brought the hive inside, there were still some bees moving around aimlessly. They ignored any food and soon died. There were also plenty of hive beetles. Any of those moving have been squooshed.
