It looks as though the swarm has accepted their new home. I went in this evening, (smoking, of course) and they hardly flew up. I added a deep super, with only two frames along each of the sides and the center clear, set a a pair of 3/8" high blocks crossway on the top bars of the super below, and put in a feeder jar with 50-50 sugar syrup. That should make them happier. Then I removed the entry reducer and added a ventilated top cover.
Now to let my female slaves go to work!!
