I have added a new package 3 days ago and the hive appears to be happy. They are eating sugar syrup like crazy. I lifted off the inner cover and they started drawing out comb on the bottom of the cover. I assume this is because I left a space between the queen box and the middle foundation. My question is that after three days the queen is still in the box with only a small hole chewed through the candy. Will the bees continue to chew through to release her or should I assist the process along?
Thanks,
Scott
