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,

This hive is queenless and has laying drones. So moved for fairly full super frames to hive 21. Want to preserve the honey before the hive dies out.

Just inspected the supers. The middle super was quite heavy but the other two supers were light. Removed one of the supers put the heavy supper on the bottom. Moved the mainly full frames to the edges and left emty frames above the brood ball. Added 4 mainly full frames from hive 9 to the top super. Hive 9 is queen less and will die out so want to salvage the honey in it.
