Hive check - doing good

I checked the MH hive on Sunday. Lots of bees, lots of pollen being brought into the hive. In the top deep, there are only 3 frame sides not fully drawn out yet. But they are drawing them out with comb. I want to swap out a few honey frames with empty frames to give them room in a week or so. I also want to make some drone frames to add to the deeps to help with any possible Vorroa mite problems. I've not seen any motes yet, but I am not assuming they are not there.
