Superseded? added brood chamber

I added another brood chamber today and looked once again for the marked queen that came with the package. I'm just almost sure that queen was superseded. I just can't find her anywhere and didn't see eggs so I'm assuming (I know always dangerous) that she is no longer present.

This isn't really ideal, I believe. Now I have to wait for the new queen to mate and start laying. Crap! Maybe I shouldn't have put the new brood chamber on if they are going to be loosing numbers till the new brood started to emerge.
