More News From Hive #2

My last inspection was Saturday, so this really is a bit late...!  The headline news is:  the queen in hive #2 is now laying!  In fact, some of the brood is capped, which means she'd been laying for more than a week already.

This is very good news, as it now means that I can name her.  I haven't yet got round to doing the naming & marking ceremony for the queen in the nucleus, so hopefully this weekend I can do both queens at the same time.  I already have two names in mind...
