Hi Finsky, sorry about the delayed reply...it has been raining heavily here (by that I mean 24 hour rain) since the swarm so the girls have not been getting out much. I have been away with work so as yet have not opened either hive since the swarm. I am hoping to get to them this weekend, will assess the situation then and probably pop another super on top of the new hive.
It is our wet season here in northern Australia at the moment through until about March. Hot and wet! The bees spend time inside doing their housework, come out for some sun when it peeps through the clouds, go off and do some foraging then you see them racing back home, usually followed by a heavy downpour of good old tropical rain.
I am not sure but I think they might be a little delayed on their honey storing at the moment due to the weather.
I really wanted to open the original hive last weekend but it rained and rained (arrggghhh!). I wanted to see if the new queen cells were developing and then keep an eye on it all from there. So far no swarm from the old hive though...hopefully a good thing.
