I would like to try beekeeping, but the 5 supers I got look odd, is it AFB?
The hive is old and has been stored in an old shed, damp, etc. Most of the old honey-comb on the slides is falling apart, and is black. This is in both the honey and brood supers.

Beekeeping,Beehive Bees entrance fanning,Goldenrod bee pollen loads
Beekeeping, Beekeepers closeup of entrance fanning by honey bees. WATCH the upside down bees, I’d never noticed that before.
