I did a check on the swarm I hived 7 days ago, they are drawing out nice white wax had nectar and pollen stores but I did not see any eggs. Shouldn't there be eggs by now?

I went back into the swarm hive today and found the queen. Also found eggs with the help of a magnifying glass. I would not have seen them otherwise small white eggs on new white comb.
SO maybe I just need new glasses. lol
