Not a breakthrough

Had a quick check up on the hives today, thinking the bees would have chewed their way through the news by now. And although they had removed a thin sliver of words, most of the paper was still there. So I closed up the double-hive and decided to return tomorrow.
Not sure what to make of their reluctance to break through. Hope it's not a bad sign. But I did notice that the Star had drone brood. So either the workers have started laying, which means there is no queen, or the queen has started laying - and it's only drone. As the area of lay was very small, I'm guessing it's the former.
