I inspected Hive #5 and #6 (Lanai & Hawaii). Lanai, has their originial queen. A deep and a medium, with lots of eggs. Numbers are light to moderate but appeared to have enough bees to remain healthy and strong.
#6 Has VERY strong numbers. They are already bearding in the evening. I put an empty medium on top of the deep to give them more space. There is no queen, but I found 4 small queen cells. Probably 3 days old. The nurse bees were tending to each one. The ones I found were on the bottom of frame # 5 (from left to right), on the bottom rear corner.
