I checked my hives yesterday.  I have one with three supers and one with
one.  The one with three had caped about 2/3 down on most of the frames some
more some less on the top super.  on the next super down there was brood
that took up about 1/3 of the center of the frames about half caped half in
the lava stage.  I did not look at the last super figuring that it had about
the same situation as the second.
 
Is this "normal"  should I wait till the brood is hatched or just until they
are caped?  Did I do something wrong to encourage this?
