Wild Hive transfer

Hi everyone. I am new to beekeeping and live in Madagascar. Last week we successfully transferred a wild hive from under a shipping container to a flow hive. Does it matter if the old brood comb is high or low in the frames. Currently it is at the bottom of the frames held with elastics? Should I try to suspend it to the top of the frames?

Hi Jesh and welcome! It sounds like you did a nice job on this cutout. It’s fine for the combs to be anywhere in the frame, as long as they are straight and vertical.
