Need some answers. I caught a swarm yesterday and hived them. Do I keep them closed up awhile? I went back today to see how many I missed. I put those in a nuc and left an opening to entice the rest in. When I get all I think I can, should I just dump them in with the first catch? I have no idea weather or not I caught the queen. After I open the entrance, should I just leave them alone for a week? If there is a queen, how long will it be before I see evidence, eggs,larva etc?
