contact feeder or frame feeder - what's the pro's and con's
Contact feeders deliver liquid feed straight onto the bees. A lot of people are happy with them but beware that they can empty onto the frames if it suddenly gets cold. The few times I tried a frame feeder a lot of bees drowned. People paint them inside with sand added, fill them with netting or sticks to avoid this. I have given up on these entirely and now prefer a rapid feeder.

what do you mean
Have you any idea what you are doing?
Have you done a course?
Have you joined a local association?
Bees need careful management.
I suggest you get in touch with your local branch of the BBKA and ask someone to come and help you urgently!!
not sure as not sure what is what on frames? so playing by ear. any one got a pic showing the difference?
