caught a swarm yesterday during the nice weather

had a look today through perspex crown board and they looked v v docile

i thought potentially starving so have fed

they were all facing upwards in the box and barely moving

is this odd and is it likely to be hunger or could it be something else

advice keenly received please, thanks as ever
 
If your weather is anything like mine atm is likely to be hunger or perhaps you got lucky and got a decent buckfast.....lol
