Honey bee (Apis mellifera) - The birth of drones in a brood surrounded by nurse bees. The drone is born 24 days after the egg is laid and it lives approximately 50 days. The drone is the only fertile depositary of the queen's genes. It is responsible for the transmission of the genes from the queen (its mother). Like all the bees, three days after the eggs have hatched the drone larvae are first fed royal jelly. Then, the nurse bees change the food to a mix of honey and pollen. Unlike the diet of the worker bee larvae, that of the drones includes more honey.Honey bee (Apis mellifera) - The birth of drones in a brood surrounded by nurse bees.
