Drone Bees are Males. Queen Bees are females. During the mating flight, Drones from one or more hives deposit sperm inside the queen. When the Queen Bee lays her eggs, she may allow one sperm to enter the egg and fertilize it. That will create a female bee. If she does not allow a sperm to enter the egg, it will be asexual reproduction. It will produce a Drone, or male bee. In spite of the fact that the Queen Bee had sex, Drones, or male bees are produced without sex, or asexually.

In addition, if something happens to the queen and she dies or disappears, the worker bees can lay eggs. They never had sexual contact. All the eggs they lay will turn into Drones. The bees can feed pollen to several of the developing bees and turn them into Queen Bees. One of them kills the rest and then mates with the drones produced from the eggs laid by the workers.
