On Monday 29th April, I caught a swarm in a bait hive on the side of my house,
I'd like to move it into the back garden, which has become my quarantine apiary.
Although I've not looked into the bait hive yet, it looks like a large primary swarm, with constant heavy forage traffic at the entrance.
I don't want them to abscond.
When's a good bet that the queen has started laying?
