I went through one of the two hives I moved from the allotment toady and made up five nucs with the queen cells in it.
I checked the Bowthorpe swarm - and yes there was a laying queen in the box. I gave it some Thymol.
I didn't check and give thymol to the single brood box on my last visit but did today.
In Old Costessy I took out the south facing queen to make up a nuc.
The nuc box on top of the hive on bricks has a laying queen.
The swarm that came from the holly tree has a queen that I marked green.
