Well the bees have been in for almost a month. They have still only drawn out about 60% of the comb, so I'm going to wait a week before putting another hive box on.
Some things I noticed:
-They use the ventilation hole in the hive almost exclusively. They actual bottom entrance of the hive is pretty much unused to far.
-The newest honeycomb seems to be a slightly different color. The original honeycomb was almost white while this new comb has a yellowish tinge. I hope that I can attribute the new color to the bees gathering more nectar and pollen.
