Ok my hive has just swarmed in front of my eyes, I have been away for 8 days and went to do checks this morning only to find a swarm in progress, managed to collect it into a box and was leaving things to settle before putting into brood box. However box rolled a bit while i was inside maddly finishing off some frames that i should have done earlier and when i went back out swarm had gone - Well not sure really as it appears that my hive that was quite quiet is not full again!!! does this happen or has the swarm just moved on? what should be my next plan of action if queen has gone back? should i remove all queen cells?? there are a quite a few in there.
Any advice appreciated.
