Lots of bees in the supers but not much honey. Are they being robbed?

No brood, so it must have gone queenless. May be a virgin queen as there seemed to be an open queen cell. Added a frame of eggs from hive 71 just in case,

Have not inspected this hive in quite a while because it had nasema. But lots of bees going in the hive. So inspected. There were 4 frames of brood and 2 of food and lots of bees. Perhaps it has superseeded the queen. Not sure how to proceed.

Hive is queen less. Harvested 2 frames of hiney from bottom brood box, Thinking of moving one of the brood boxes to hive 28 in the future,
