"what is going on"
Is that a question you are asking? Looks like a nice bunch of frames with plenty of capped brood, older larvae and if my eyes are working today it looks like younger larvae in some cells in pic 3. When was the new queen released, and why did you use her? Was there a problem?

As Perry asked when was the hive requeened and why was the reason. some frames look like the brood was spotty but it looks like the queen is laying in any empty cells that are empty.

Two eggs in bottom of cells,  Don't worry.

4 to 8 eggs on sides of cells, WORRY.
