I have just spotted a couple of play cups with eggs, not charged with any jelly though. Does this mean anything conclusive or is it just the usual style play cup behavoiur of keeping them ready for when they decide to make decisions?
 
you may find them gone in a few days but do check.

I bet that after 3 there quite much jelly.
They seldom give up from their eggs.
 
It's a fairly strong indicator that they are considering getting serious about swarming so time to hone your plan.
