The three types of honey bee in the colony are
* The queen. She lays all the eggs and does no other work. There is only one queen in a colony. * The drone. The drones are the males, their only purpose is to mate with new queens, and they do no work in the hive. In winter there are no drones in the colony; in summer there could be up to 300. * The workers. These are all female, but their ability to lay eggs is suppressed by pheromones from the queen. As workers have never mated, they could only produce drone eggs anyway. The workers do all tasks in the hive and all the foraging for nectar and pollen. The average colony has between 20,000 and 50,000 workers.
