Did you know how many bees can be in a Gold Bricks hive?

Did you know that a Gold Bricks hive can house 35,000 worker bees, about 1,000 drones, and one single queen? Yes, a mother is unique and there can only be one. The worker bees can be either “summer” or “winter” bees. Summer bees, due to their hard work in rearing young bees and collecting nectar and pollen, live for about 5 weeks ☹. Winter bees, on the other hand, mostly stay in the hive and try to “survive” the cold winter, so they have the ability to live from early autumn until spring.
