Can a decaying bull produce bees?

No. A decaying or decomposing dead bovine can produce flies, not bees. However, a dead carcass will attract bees as well because bees need some form of protein in their diet. A carcass will produce flies like to lay eggs on decomposing carcasses so that their larvae, maggots, eat at the carcass, which help them grow into pupae which then transform into adult flies. A beehive, which is where the queen bee lives, produces bees, not a decaying dead animal.
