Very calm. Queen laying like shes on steroids. Low food. Tons of brood. Removed wets off top and back to two boxes. Left 2 frame feeder in top box. Will top off for a few weeks.
Left them with 6 frames honey, two from next door hive. (Not ideal but seriously low honey levels). Breeding faster than making food. Will also add pollen patties.
Lovely temperament.
Added apivar as prophylactic. Keeps them in sync with other hives.
This was a swarm but would like to breed off this queen. Great layer and calm.
