The hive already has a queen. Apparently, all of the bees in the hive are loyal to the already established queen. If a new queen is born, the hive will swarm and find a new place to live.
We looked at each frame for queen cells which look like a drooping peanut.

We weren't totally sure about a few of the cells, so we removed what we thought might be queen cells. Kind of a gooey white liquid is what we removed. Royal jelly?
