I have 2 hives I believed to be queen-less.
I put a caged queen in each hive on Friday.
When I put the queens in, the bees in either hive barley paid attention to them.
I had a check today and here is how they were reacting:
(I apologize in advance for the poor camera work)
Hive 1:

Hive2:

The cages were hung between the frames, I just lifted them out to film them.
So how do you guys think it looks? Why so little attention in hive 1? And are they being kind or mean in hive 2?
Thanks as always.
