Should I add a queenless package

I asked about this last week and have my concerns again. Maybe I should just let it go and see how they do but I've been doing a little more observation (externally). For every 10 bees my strong hive is sending out it seems my week hive is sending 1. Should I be worried?

There's a good flow on and the weak hive isn't taking syrup. Blackberries and tulip poplar are going great. I'm just worried they are so far behind they can't catch up.

Anybody know if packages are still available anywhere?

Thanks.

Went out this evening around 5:30 and the weak hive had way more traffic than the strong one. Maybe they are late sleepers.

I'm going to be patient for now.

Dixie bee supply in Lula, GA probably has bees to sell. Google it but I think it is dixiebees.com.
