There can only be one queen bee in each hive to maintain social order and reproductive efficiency. The queen's primary role is to lay eggs, and having multiple queens would lead to competition, confusion, and potential conflict. Worker bees recognize and support only one queen, ensuring that she remains the sole reproductive individual while the rest focus on foraging, nursing, and hive maintenance. This structure helps optimize the hive's resources and stability.

There's only one queen bee in each hive and Queens Bees are not supposed to leave their hives so they wouldn't. However, there are several queen larvae, all of which are fed a special food.
