[ocba] Local supply dealer

I keep forgetting to ask.  Do we have a local supply dealer?  I need 10 deep frames/foundations, and with this heat didnt want to order them through the mail...

Also needed some advice.  Just started with a nuc this year, that I moved to a 10frame.  Feeding them constantly, because this first year I just want growth and not honey.  They drew that out very fast, so I added a second hive body.  On inspection it looks like they've filled the lower body completely with brood and the top body with honey.  Should I rotate some brood to the center of the top body?  I'd like to add a third deep frame before they winter so I can split  the hive next Spring, but with the non"rainbow" laying pattern I didnt know if that was wise...

Thanks
-Zac
