Queen started
« on: April 30, 2016, 03:42:59 pm »
well Haven't been in hive since April 12 decided today was day to see if my new queen was laying.  No queen seen since March  27 and was running out of capped brood. Today was awesome as you can see her and multiple stages seen in brood and the they started building again.
Whew !!

Ya, that's when you can expect a hive raised queen to start laying.
It's a not a good sign if all the brood is all hatched out and she hasn't started yet.

Yep so glad she is laying almost did a dance. Was worried they killed 2 queens. First day on install then 12 days later on the rerelease of the  replacement queen. They wanted there own I guess.
