First 2 nanitics! :D They have 4 pupae, and a pile of eggs and larvae. I gave them some honey, a few fruit flies, and a spider.

I forgot to mention that the new queen has 9 eggs!
She now has 14 eggs!
There are around 5-6 larvae.
She has pupae now.

They have 7 workers, 4 pupae, and a pretty good sized pile of other brood. It seems like when 1 worker hatches, a larva pupates, so there is a constant 4 pupae.
