Greetings all,
     My local mentor is out of town, on vacation, so I figured what better place to
 pose this question but to this panel.  I have one hive that is very populous, and I
 am concerned that it may swarm.  Last Saturday, I requeened the hive, and it
appears that they have accepted her.  The upper hive body (deep) is essentially
 one frame of brood, and 2 partially drawn frames of foundation.  The rest is
undrawn foundation.  Prior to introduction, they were trying to supercede, and I found
a couple swarm cells, which I destroyed.  Yesterday, I found some partial swarm cells
and replacement cells, but the new queen had only been out a day.  I destroyed these.
 Will the hive swarm and take my new queen with them?  If so, what measure can I
take to lessen the chance?

Thanks,
Scott Moser
