A queen bee can lay up to 2,000 eggs a day. She only lays one egg in each cell, so needs the time to extract her abdomen from one cell, select the next cell in which to lay, inspect it, then insert her abdomen into the next cell. This process takes tens of seconds even if the queen is working quickly.

Clearly this will depend upon how long the queen bee lives for. In practice beekeepers like to have young healthy queens and so will often replace them before they live their full span. In theory a queen bee could live for 3 to 5 years and during peak times of the year she could be laying 2,000 eggs a day. But in Winter the number of eggs laid will be zero or close to zero when conditions are very cold. That being the case it is quite possible that a queen bee could lay anything from one to two million eggs in her lifetime.
