numbers are low, not sure about queen?

[queenbee3074]

Check one of my hives last week (this is a hive that was a small swarm and I've always been able to spot the queen) numbers looked a little low and could not find the queen. Also, I had put a frame from another hive, that had brood and larva, into the small hive. Checked it today thinking I would see a queen cell started, nope. The brood is hatching, but still didn't see the queen or any eggs. Bees are flying a little, but pollen only being brought in once in great while. Any ideas would be helpfull.I also have a blog with some photos I added last night, please feel free to look if you'd like.

Do you still have cold weather??
I would say the bees no what they are doing as far as the frame you gave them
If they made no q-cells they need none.
Could it be that they swarmed? This would account for so little numbers
Could they have superseded, she is still mating,why you saw no eggs brood
I did not see the photo you mention

Tommyt, we have had a few warm days(70), but also some rain and last night down to (34). I don't think they swarmed, could have superseded. A few weeks back there was what I thought was supercedure cells. When I checked a week or so later they were opened up, but could not find queen. No drones seen yet. Thanks

You say no drones seen yet
Is that,This hive? Or is there no drones in your area as of yet
I would think you may have a new queen
I'd give it time

Plus with me posting your post goes BTTT
Maybe others will jump in for support

I have not seen drones in either of my hives and I don't really know other beekeepers in my area, so not sure about activity of drones around here. I'm wondering about a new queen after you asked about supersedure cells. Maybe she looks enough different from the one I had seen, that I just can't spot her. Thanks for your help
