First year of beekeeping, and few posts so be gentle.
My main hive is not fully expanded in the brood and is just onto its second super. Delia and the girls don't seem very keen on the rest of the brood box but are happy to go up into the super. Anyway, on the last few frames in the brood which have been drawn out, the cells are mostly filled with nectar but mixed in are a few scattered capped drone larvae. Are some of the girls getting fed up with waiting for Delia to give up the eggs, a few frames away can't be too far for her queenie effects to be felt?
