Placing the falseback (divider board) in the middle of the hive when installing the bees, helps the bees set their brood nest towards the front of the top bar hive. View more videos at www.backyardhive.com

Bees Brood Nest Top Bar Hive
What should I do if I knock honeycomb off of a top bar?
I have a top bar beehive and I went out today to move the false back so they have more room to build honey comb. Unfortunately, in the process of doing this, I knocked two of the biggest honey combs, all filled with brood, off of their top bars. I’m not sure what I should do with this comb. Should I leave it in the hive? Will any of the brood survive if I leave it in there? Or should I take it out and consider it a loss? Will it seriously harm my hive? Oh, I feel so horrible!
