11 days ago I added the third deep, adding one full frame of bees with drawn comb into the third deep from the 2nd deep. Today I inspected and I found 2 full frames of honey but no queen and no brood. I could have missed the queen in my inspection but I don't think so since there was absolutely no brood. Is it possible she's still working in that 2nd deep? The bees were uber cranky, I got stung in the hand (didn't go through the gloves) 3x's. I finally got to experience my bees in a bad mood (buzzing aggressively and swooping at my head).
Weather isn't great, very cloudy and dark, which I'm assuming is why they aren't happy.
Any advice on what to do about the queen not moving up?
