Tell the story of the hive. Let the others have a chance to give their opinions. I didn't see any small larva. Is there any on the other frames?

No too many with better advice and experience like Iddee.

the capped brood looks healthy from the pictures but the brood pattern looks spotty. Is the queen laying eggs that way Or is she laying an egg in almost every cell and then the bees are clearing them out.

The white ones are larva. The pupae are under the capps. There should be some VERY small larva, or even eggs if your eyes are good enough to see them.

Either eggs, or very small larva. The ones I saw in the pics could be 7 days or older. You need to see younger larva to be sure you didn't loose her 7 days ago,

Difficult to see any eggs, but I think I saw at least a few very young larvae. pattern is a little spotty like apis said, though. I would check again in a few days.

Let me know if you can't find one. I may know where to get one.
