Beekeepers dont harvest the Pollen which the yeast is replacing. The lack of Pollen is most likelly a result of Monocultur.
No, but they do replace the honey with sugar syrup
Only during specific times of the year, it's a supplement not a main diet. If you notice your colony doesn't have enough honey for the winter, or it's a new colony, or needs medicated, then yes. Otherwise they should be eating their own stored honey made the way they like it.
