[QUOTE="tommy dave, post: 9603, member: 25"] is there anyone nearby you could acquire a frame of brood in all stages from? if so, get one, and add it to the hive and see whether they're raising an emergency queen. There is a chance there is a new queen in there that simply hasn't started laying yet. It's really hard to answer this one without looking inside the hive - bee numbers is key. Are there say, enough bees in there that at least ten frames are completely covered in bees several bees deep? so, still fairly weak, but salvagable. Or are you talking more like a handful of frames of bees? [/QUOTE]
