Update on my nuc and single QC.
Inspected today, 8 days (for various reasons) after my last inspection, when the QC was sealed.
No eggs, some very young larvae, and no sign of the marked queen (or a virgin).
Not obvious from bee numbers if the nuc has swarmed on one QC, but (somewhat surprisingly) looks likely.
Will look again for mated queen in a couple of weeks.
