New queen not laying eggs, what should I do?
I've recently installed a 5th queen into my main hive after a queenless season. It looks normal at first—frames are filled with bees, but there are barely any eggs or tiny eggs on the frames. I've been checking for queen cells and I don't see any new ones forming. I'm wondering if it's a queen problem or maybe the bees are just stalling because of the recent heatwave. Has anyone dealt with a new queen that seems to ignore the hive? What steps should I take to coax her into laying? I'm thinking about supplemental feeding, checking for queen viability, maybe even moving her to a different colony. Any tips, advice, or red flags I should look out for? Thanks for your help! ...
