We checked in on the hive yesterday, they are starting to make comb which was really cool to see. We have 5 frames with the nuc and they are about halfway done with the comb on 2 additional frames. We found the queen, which was super cool. I could see some faint green paint on her which according to my bee book means they marked her earlier this year. (or in 2019?)
