Hi all,
I was doing first inspection of year on first frame with brood on there were two play cups and a queen cup with occupier, removed said cell and carried on with inspection only to realize that there did not appear to be any eggs and only a hand full of capped worker and quite alot of drone. The frames are very untidy although nest is half way between top and bottom brood box, do you think it would be a good idea to put frame in with eegs on. There were a lot of drone bees in this hive. They have plenty of stores and pollen, and are flying well.
Thanks Cedar
