THis is my first year and I bought used hives, not knowing for sure what I had i decided to re-queen each one to make sure that I had strong queens to start off with. About 2 weeks later I've gone through them and found new uncapped babies in all except one, I've found the queen, capped brood but no uncapped or new babies. Can a new queen be bad? Should I re-queen again? Wait a few more days? Not sure what to do? Thanks

Yes I have a good bit of capped brood,I uncapped one to make sure what I was looking at, i requeened about 2 weeks ago, i was thinking that the old queen must have layed these and the new queen has done nothing, no small ones in any stage that I could see. How long does it normally take for new queen to get started?
