Cole,
Sounds like a perfect set-up for a split or two. If you don't want another hive, take a bunch of those brood frames and put them in nucs, buy and introduce a queen for each one, and when she "takes" sell the nuc for somewhere between $100 and $150. From your description, you should be able to get 2 or 3 nice sized nucs out of the deal. Whatever you do, feed starting right now. The going rate for dead bees isn't much.
