ok, out of my 6 hives, got one not acting right, I inspected and the hive has about 3 frames of bee's, first I thought the queen might have died this winter so I was going to put these 3 frames of bee's (they are in a medium) over a single deep colony that is exploding with bee's with the newpaper method, but farther inspection of the slow hive a queen was seen, it is not the all golden queen I had last year, this queen was striped, there are some bee's emerging, but I seen no eggs or larva, just wondered if yaw think like I do and this is a new queen that hasn't started laying yet? guest time will tell, I'll inspect again in a week, all opinions welcomed....
