Really bees bees ama ....others That's a strange one. Bees have no capacity to evacuate honey. I wonder what kind of bees those ones were...must be Apis Mellifera Humanoid Well I only know of the normal bees and the yellow ground ones, by the time the swam died on the setup all that was left was magua or the stuff with wax etc. @Kayhara, are you saying a swarm of bees ate all the honey and left empty comb? What the hell!!!Are you guys kidding? Nobody is kidding. Is there anything unusual about bees eating honey. @baratang...there is nothing unusual about bees eating the honey, but there is something unusual about a swarm of bees eating the honey. Eish!!!Kwani those bees in the swarm are not bees? Bees are bees bwana. NKT!!! Relax chief. I have some limited knowledge of bees and I just wanted to collect you on the usage of the word swarm. It is not the swarm of bees that ate the honey although it is still bees which ate it. You are confusing me and may be any other wazua member who does not understand you. What is the difference between swarm and bees, whatever?

We have three categories of bees in the colony within the hive, the Queen, the drone (male bee) and the Worker (female bee). The three categories of bees are known as castes and each caste has its own specific task in the hive. When the nectar flow is high during and after the rains the bee reproduction is high within the hive. If the bees run out of space i.e the hive becomes crowded, the bees starts a process which is a prelude to a sub-division. Once the process is complete, the queen with some of the worker bees (about a half) leaves the hive in search of a new home and to propagate further colony reproduction. This process is called swarming and those bees that you find clustering on a tree branch are actually bee swarms. When these bees are hanging up there they do not feed as they have already eaten enough honey from the previous (home) hive bee leaving and they don't fight as they do not have anything (honey or brood) to protect except the queen. When the queen is under threat they really become mad. With that in mind, what ate kayhara's uncle's honey was the large caste of worker bees foragers from the nearby hives. *...besides, the presence of a safe alone does not signify that there is money inside...*

So kayhara's honey was eaten by neighbours' bees. Isolite. It seems the female bees (workers) are the ones that look for nectar to make honey as per your explanation including stealing other people's honey. What are the specific tasks of the queen and the drone in the hive. Just curious.
