Just checked the hives. I shouldn't have - it wouyld have been a more pleasant evening otherwise.
Of 4 hives, 3 are now hopelessly queenless and there are no eggs in the fourth. I thought I had 2 OK queens in apideas, but one isn't there and the other doesn't quite understand the idea of laying. In a lunatic feat of panic, I put her into one hive - if it works, great. Otherwise I'll be no better.
My plans are to unite the apparently good hive with one of the not too well ones. But I just don't know what to do otherwise.
