Hi I had one large ish hive which was going to swarm, so slit and made a nuc to expand!
All fine then nuc swarmed when virgins hatched, luckily into a Spare hive.
I combined the nuc an the swarm after no queen mated or survived?
Then two weeks ago the original hive swarmed which I caught, now in hive.
Looked through all three yesterday, no eggs in any, a queen in original hive which I found in the super and flew out but got it in the hive.
The other two I can't find a queen in, but one had a queen cell in with a grub in, open?
What should I do? Give up and jump in a hole or should I combine and bye a queen?
