Puzzled by what I found today. Population down and lack of eggs and larvae. Just some capped brood. Figure it swarmed. Found 2 capped swarm cells at bottom of frame, but also found 2 that appeared they were taken d own,not hatched from or attacked from the side. Lower half just gone. To add to the mystery ( to me anyway ), I found one very large capped supercedure cell on middle of a frame and a capped cell on the top bar which is new to me. Whatever is going on doesn't look normal to me and maybe desperate to make a queen. I closed it up thinking there might be a virgin in there. Swarmed and first virgin didn't make it? J
