I have two hive, one came out of winter with a good amount of bees, but queenless. I added brood and eggs from second hive, but laying pattern was a bit spotty, looks like that queen was failing too. When back the other day to look at both hives and found that second hive while looking strong has no eggs, both hives now queenless. No problem was able to order a queen for second (stronger) hive, will be here tomorrow. I also was able to get a package, also here tomorrow. Got a package as I was not sure there were enough bees to build back up. Question is with this hive being queenless for at least a month, can I install the package on top of them, or should I do the news paper between boxes to combine them?
