Best Answer

There's only one queen bee in each hive and Queens Bees are not supposed to leave their hives so they wouldn't. However, there are several queen larvae, all of which are fed a special food. When these larvae hatch from their chrysalis, they do fight, stinging each other repeatedly until only one bee is left. This Survivor then becomes the new queen of the hive.
