Neither of my nucs are laying.
I did think one had lost her queen and wasn't as active as the newer one,but I saw her today.They weren't agressive and seem well populated.
I've stopped feeding a week ago as there's a flow on and I want to make sure they both have laying room.Theres stores and what looks like freshly capped brood but no larvae or eggs.
The old comb frames aren't being polished but the one sheet of foundation in each has been drawn with worker cell.
This is mirroring what's going on in the apiary so it must be me?
That said,the nest I cut out on Tuesday didn't have eggs either.
