queen cups

[yolanda huang]

I have a hive from a swarm I caught last year - which happened to fly into my backyard.  AT the end of March, I saw lots and lots of honey and no eggs, no brood.

Jim Veitch was kind enough to come by and helped me with a hive inspection saw some new eggs.  So I covered them up, and left them alone.

Third week of April ,  the hive seemed to be humming alone, and I added a medium super.  

My last hive check was early May.  Today I did a hive check, 

The bees have drawn comb on 7/10 frames in the super, and 5 of the 10 are 2/3 of honey and pollen.

The brood is below in a deep box.  And I found 4 capped queen cups.  Photos attached.

Advice.

Thanks,

Yolanda
