Regarding Baggie Feeders: Can I put them on a tray vs lay them on the frame tops? Placing the baggie on a shallow (plastic) tray would allow me to move or remove the bags with minium spillage even if they are not empty.
The reason I ask is that being a new beekeeper I want to check on the bees relatively frequently (once a week maybe until I get the hang of things), and I now realize that the baggies will dictate or complicate the visits. Today, for example, the bags were nearly empty however still difficult to remove without spilling the syrup. .
Thanks,

Should not be a big deal, but They may glue the pan down anyway. There really isn't a good way to deal with the bag issue. That is one of the reasons most don't use them anymore.

take the bags off, put an inner cover and a Jar feeder on with an extra super to house it.
