You now have a two queen hive? Are you keeping them separated? Or have you found a way for them to co-exist?

I just combined two small swarms, each with its own queen, using newspaper and a queen excluder to separate the two queens. The bees should eventually co-mingle while the queens go about their business. That's the plan.
