Awesome - the queen should be well and truly laying by now or else there will be some queen cells in there

I had a bit of a look yesterday and everything is going well. Plenty of freshly capped brood and larvae so there is definately a queen . I am amazed at how well they have repaired all the damaged comb, I would say the frames are about 95% full now. They do seem to be a bit hot though, which is understandable I guess, but if they don't calm down in another couple of months they will be getting a new queen  :'(
Paul.
