The rate at which the queen lays varies through the year. In winter the queen lays very few eggs, and may even stop laying altogether for a period. In spring her laying rate will rise, and in late spring she could be laying 2,000 eggs a day as the colony builds up to full strength. The rate will then slow down again through summer, and from the second half of summer colony numbers will reduce in preparation for winter.
A queen honey bee can lay between 1000 and 2000 eggs per day.
On an average 2000 ova (or eggs) are laid by queen bee in a single day. so in a year a queen bee will lay approximately 7,30,000 eggs.
At the height of the season, a honey bee queen can lay up to 2000 eggs per day.
the queen bee can lay up to 3,000
At the height of the breeding season she can lay up to 2,000 eggs a day.A honey bee queen can lay up to 1000 eggs per day.
The queen bee lays eggs. No other bee in the colony does.
Yes, female bumble bees do lay eggs. The queen bee lays eggs that hatch into worker bees, drones, and future queen bees. The eggs are laid in cells within the bee colony.
A honey bee queen can lay between 1000 and 2000 eggs PER DAY in the height of the season. Therefore 14,000 eggs per week is quite possible.
A well-mated and well-fed queen of quality stock can lay about 2,000 eggs per day.
Drones are male, they don't lay eggs; only the queen bee can lay eggs.
Clearly this will depend upon how long the queen bee lives for. In practice beekeepers like to have young healthy queens and so will often replace them before they live their full span. In theory a queen bee could live for 3 to 5 years and during peak times of the year she could be laying 2,000 eggs a day. But in Winter the number of eggs laid will be zero or close to zero when conditions are very cold. That being the case it is quite possible that a queen bee could lay anything from one to two million eggs in her lifetime.
A queen bee can lay about 1-2 eggs per minute. She can lay up to 1,500 eggs in a single day under optimal conditions.
