Checked both hives today. The Buckfast hive is full of tightly capped brood, developing larvae and eggs. Guess the new queen is performing well. Two supers are full of capped honey. No comb drawn in the two empty supers yet, though.
The new hive has capped supersedure cells. Must be close to hatching. The second hive body has two full frames of capped honey, and comb is being drawn on the others. The brood chamber has some spotty capped brood and developing larvae and eggs.
The picture shows the frame containing the supersedure cells. One is circled.
