just check the bees and added a frame of comb i had from another hive.dont understand the bees still have not touched the super but are still building lots of comb on the bottom of the brood frames and storing it there and alot on the top and coners of the brood frames and found 2 beginning swarm queen cell should i wait it out or add a second hive body i really would like to avoid a swarm

sounds like you have only one deep now??? if so its time to get a second deep on the hive - and since they have Qcells you are going to have to really mess things up for the inorder to change there minds --

take about 4 frames of brood and move up into the new box and then mix new frames with the first box - this will give the bees room -

also dont use a queen exculder on supers that are undrawn - they rearly draw above the exculder

good luck

Are you using wax or plastic? If plastic have you painted with wax or syrup? Also as was said no excluder.

I hope you destroyed the swarm cells.
