Jammy devil (it's all turned out well)

With a little help from Peter B, it turns out that (brace yourself) both hives *do* have brood in them.

Clearly, better eyesight would help, alongside a dose of patience.

As Peter put it, "Despite doing almost everything wrong, both hives are thriving, full of bees, brood and honey. You're a jammy devil."
