I did a search and did not see an answer to this. If I place one deep on a deep and a half hive with newspaper in between do I make sure they have a top entrance or simply the bottom entrance?
Also, can I, later, put the medium on top of the two deeps once combined or should I do this at the time of the combine making it go: deep--paper--deep--paper--medium?
Give the new box of bees no entrance, but cut some slits in the paper.

What I do depends on the weather. It's hot here today. I'd give them both entrances. If it was cool I wouldn't worry about it.
