Nice job with the nuc install !
I would ditch that 1 gallon feeder and get a 2 gallon from Mann Lake with ladders - (http://www.mannlakeltd.com/beekeepin...ry/page45.html). They will need syrup to draw out the bare foundation until the nectar flow starts. A Mega-bee pollen patty from Dadant would help with brood stimulation as well. I'm a fan of wooden frames myself, as some of the plastic (Pierco) frames can warp over time. Have fun !!!
