Early this afternoon, the front of the hive I just added the queen to, was buzzing with new forage bees at the threashhold. This is not good, as the new queen should just be laying and there is no way the brood could have hatched. This means that either a rouge queen snuck into the hive and began laying, or I put the queen in the wrong hive. Probably the later. I now will have to queen that hive.
On another note, I may have killed the queen in my third hive as it fell over while I was nadiring it. The hive came to a sudden standstill and became very sullen. I know they can re-queen so I will let them. Later
