Just opened the hive to see how the girls have made out with the 2nd box. HolyMoly!!! It's about 50% full of brood, capped brood, and honey!  I wasn't expecting them to have created so much in the last 2 weeks.  In another 2 weeks, I'll have to get a honey super, maybe two.

Still haven't spotted a drone. I know they're in there!  Probably feasting away at the honey in the lower box.  Next time I go in, I'll look down further to see what's happening.

At this rate, they may want to split next spring!  I've got to be ready.
