Splitting a Honeybee Hive

The life cycle of honeybees consists of four main stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult.Egg Stage: A queen bee lays eggs in honeycomb cells. Each egg is tiny, about the size of a pinhead, and it remains in this stage for about three days.Larva Stage: After hatching, the egg becomes a larva. Worker bees feed the larvae with royal jelly initially, and then worker bees and drones receive a mix of pollen and honey. This stage lasts about six days.Pupa Stage: The larva spins a cocoon and becomes a pupa

Honey bees develop in four distinct life cycle phases: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The total development time varies a bit among the three castes of bees, but the basic miraculous process is the same: 24 days for drones, 21 days for worker bees, and 16 days for queens.
