There is only 1 queen bee in th hive.
Under normal circumstances, there will only be one queen in a hive,
Usually one
All bees in a hive are female. The workers are sterile females. The only time there are males is in the spring when there is a new queen to be serviced.There are usually more than 1 million bees in a hive.
Because the hive is always at work along with taking care of the queen bee.
The number of bees in a hive varies through the year. At the end of winter there will probably be around 10,000 bees, but in mid-summer there could be around 60,000 bees.
Under normal circumstances, only one.
You can't if there is brood there. You would have to trap her in a queen cage and put her in the new hive, then transfer as many of the other bees as possible. If the new hive is kept very close to the old site the remaining bees should go to the new hive by themselves within a few hours.
The larger queen bee is the sole egg layer in a hive. The many workers are all female. Drones are all male and are much less than workers in number.
drones: mate with the queens. queen: mate with the drones make new bees. worker: they build , clean , protect hive , care for young and groom queen.
Only one queen to a hive. If two queens are born at the same time, they will fight until one is dead.
Honey bees generally remove all dead bodies from their hive and that would include a deceased queen bee. I have in the past found a dead queen on the ground outside the entrance to a hive. (The reason I could identify it as a queen was that it was colour marked to help find it - many beekeepers mark their queens thus.)
