Product Information

The queen bee is born from an egg, just like in the other types of bees. However, she will be born in a particularly large cell compared to the rest. Once the egg is hatched, the larval stage of the queen bee is the active feeding stage before metamorphosis. It occurs 3 to 5 days after laying the egg. All the larvae are fed by royal jelly for the first 3 days. This is manufactured by the worker bees from their hypopharyngeal gland.

It is these specialist bees that have already experienced the most population decline and have the highest vulnerability to the effects of climate change. This is due to season creep causing a “temporal shift” in their food availability. The largest bee in the colony, a mature mated queen is about twice the size of the workers. This is due primarily to her long abdomen. However, her middle section or “thorax” is slightly larger than also. The same role as the honey bee, but they don’t produce a surplus of honey other than what’s necessary They are easy to identify due to the large peanut shape on the surface of the comb or hanging from the bottom of frames. These pheromones are passed throughout the colony and tell the colony that all is well. Workers spread them by antenna touching and other grooming activities.Don’t over-weed your garden. What we class as weeds are a bee’s food heaven. A lot of weeds we remove are actually wild flowers which would provide plenty of nectar for bees. More bee-friendly gardening tips.

Queen bees usually have a brighter body than the workers. Their bright bodies help worker bees identify them. However, queen bees also produce pheromones that all bees and wasps can sense and know where she is. The combination of appearance and scent makes them easy to spot for humans and bees alike. Some freshly mated queens seem very small. Don’t be disappointed yet. Given a few weeks to mature and begin laying in the hive, the small lady’s abdomen starts to plump up. Queen cells start out as queen cups, which are larger than the cells of normal brood comb and are oriented vertically instead of horizontally. Worker bees will only further build up the queen cup once the queen has laid an egg in a queen cup. In general, the old queen starts laying eggs into queen cups when conditions are right for swarming or supersedure. Swarm cells hang from the bottom of a frame while supersedure queens or emergency queens are generally raised in cells built out from the face of a frame.Queen bees do not leave the hive regularly like the other members of the colony. These girls just don’t get out a lot. They might be described as home-bodies, or rather, hive-bodies?
