I checked the swarm that I managed to recover from my "Swarm Out of Reach" saga. There was only about 3 frames of bees in there, so I compressed them down to 1 box. I didn't see a queen, but the bees were acting so normal that I'm wondering if I just missed a virgin. Or the babies made them stick, in spite of not having a queen. I gave them a frame of BIAS from another hive to give them a population boost and allow them to make a queen if they need to. As far as established hives, I split one, removed the queen from another, and added my pollen trap to a third. There are a lot of queen cups being made, but I didn't see any actual queen cells. I undersupered 2 of the hives to give some more room in the brood nest. Still no significant drawing, and I can see from my notes that at this point last year drawing had absolutely commenced.
