No laying workers as the eggs I found were at the very bottom of the cells and only one of them per cell. Laying workers usually have lots of eggs around the middle to top of the cell.
If you got laying worker and there isn’t many bees, you sometimes can see the laying worker back into cells to lay eggs. It looks really weird to see a worker bee backing into a cell so it’s easy to spot if you kill her you solve the problem because at first there usually only one laying worker.
From my experience, I've seen multiple laying workers in a single colony. The best way to deal with them is to shake the colony out in front of another. The guard bees will get rid of the laying workers and let the rest in.
My best performing hive so far is a hive with a 3 year old queen, constant wall to wall brood, she's on 5 supers, will check mid-week to see if they need another one
You found eggs we didn’t find a queen there wasn’t many bees so it should’ve been easy so I predict you’ve got laying worker. All good fun❤
