As yockey5 said check back in a week for eggs.

During your inspection did you see any evidence of queen cells that have been torn apart?

If she was a laying queen does she have anywhere to lay, are they honey bound, any empty space for them to expand into?

They do have the space and no queen cells. She is a pretty queen also but kinda surprised me and started the hive from a cutout that had alot of brood and they hive raised the queen there

May be un-mated, or just mated and will soon lay. Give her a lil time.
