Did our second hive inspection today. The hive with the Pierco foundation is doing well, but the second box we put on has a lot of cross comb. I think they are confused about where they are supposed to build. Otherwise, things are looking good. They were in a much better mood today, for certain. I didn't get stung either :)

The foundationless hive isn't ready for a second box yet. Looks like a lot of brood has hatched and they are cleaning the cells out. I believe in the end they might do much better. We shall see. They seem to be taking their time but being much more organized, if that makes sense.

Will post pictures later.
