We did an artificial swarm 4 wks ago, have not marked the queen yet but brood at all stages/types seen, prolific until this week. Laying pattern scattered and v sparse no grubs/eggs seen, capped drone and worker brood sighted. Seemed to have space to lay in, but there is pollen on every frame. We are running brood and a half, with two supers for swarm control and to try to get the comb drawn out asap. This is our second summer beekeeping.
