How many QUEEN bees do one beehive have?

Only one queen to a hive. If two queens are born at the same time, they will fight until one is dead.


What do you call a bee house?

Honey bees live in a nest, often called a 'hive.' One hive can hold up to 80,000 bees, most of them workers. It is often located in a hollow tree. The hive is made of honeycomb, which are tightly packed hexagonal cells made of beeswax. They use the hive to store food and house their young.


How do you make a queen bee leave the nest?

The queen bee of a hive does not leave the nest by any means. Without a queen bee, a hive simply cannot exist. If one were to remove the queen bee, it would be a matter of hours before the hive is in complete chaos. In the event the queen bee is about to die, there is already a "lady-in-waiting" to take her place. In simpler terms, the queen cannot be persuaded to leave. It is simply not in their design.


If you kill all the bees on a nest but one what happens to that bee?

One bee cannot live by itself. In order to start a new hive, you need a queen and at least one male. If all but one bee are killed, that bee will soon starve to death.


How does a female bumble bee find a male bumble bee?

to be a bit more specific- yes, the queen bee goes out and finds her mate when she first leaves the hive, but they make there own hive, and make babys. but shes the only one allowed to reproduce. and like aphids, males are only produced when necessary. so all of the bees in the hive are the queens daughters.
