Looks like this one needs more room.

Nice. That's the way I like to see them at dusk on a warm evening.

I'd still add more room.  ;) :D

If you still have a flow, add room. If not, why add room. It will just give space for pests. They are not there because of space. They are there because of temperature.

 Right you are iddee when I first saw them this way I though to add a box but when I checked the next day there were plenty of room in the hive, all I can say is just check to made sure first.

Yeah, I checked them today. They still have a little room, it was just a hot day and they're in full sun.
The flows pretty much over so I'll keep an eye on them a little while longer.
