Well, they swarmed.  I caught the swarm and hived them.  Then they swarmed
again.  I caught them and combined them with the other swarm.  They're doing
fine and have eggs.  Hoever I acidentallly killed the quene in the other hive,
or so I thought.  I ordered a new queen, and when I opened the hive, there was a
queen.  I took her out and put the queen cage in.  After two days I let her out
and they killed her.  THey have no eggs and no sign of a queen.  I have ordered
a new queen for them.  I need tips on getting her accepted.  I'm feeding them
vanilla flavored sugar syrup to mask their odors.  What else can I do?
