Did you happen to look for any queen cells they might be building??

There might be an emergency cell or even a supercedure cell somewhere.

No Queen cells anywhere. We were all over every frame and there is no hope in the box. Thanks for the link.

If you can't find a queen to buy put a frame with eggs in the hive and they will make you a queen.
