Checked on the Langs again today. Jared has added a new box with new frames to the top of Hive 2.
He's also removed the top box from Hive 1 and medicated the bottom two boxes. Not sure what he did with the top box and I'm not sure what he used to treat them (he's off camping all week).
All the bees in Hive 1 were in the top box (middle box last week). Still no sign of a queen. Removed 2 frames from the middle box. Removed the bottom box completely. Added a new clean floor board. Put in the feeder from the bottom box and filled it with sugar water (1:1 - 6 cups). Also added a frame of brood/larva/eggs from Hive 2.
I'll check back next week to see if they are growing a queen. Might add more brood at that point.
