Determine the type of female

Determine the type of female is what will be the larva of the resulting fertilized egg will it be or will become the Queen of works?

Haiydak noted that the larvae of the female offers her a large amount of food ( Royal ) in the first three days so it eat what it want, whether in homes or property in the cells of the six narrow ,

Then begin to differentiate between the larvae in each of them after the third day, while larvae of the queen gives ample quantities of food provides the royal bee bread in small quantities give from time to time to the larvae of worker bees, causing more than larvae in the queen and a clear growth advantage.

Moreover, to keep with the Royal House larva of a large quantity of food after the Royal House to end the monarchy would continue in the nutrition and growth for some time before, but can not be kept a quantity of dry food at the bottom of the Royal House Royal, while the workers larva not find anything to eat after the closure of six-cell part of the lost weight and can not be so.

It seems that to determine the type of works or the Queen does not depend only on the quantity of food provided to larvae of the Royal, but also depends on the type and content of food materials, especially in the first three days.

The reasons for the different individuals in the community of bees

Queen vaccinated develop two types of eggs, fertile eggs produced by females, and fertile queens that will be later, as well as the sterile female worker, which will be later, and also develop a non-enriched eggs produced by a male.

Fertilized eggs are usually placed in the eyes of six small cell of about 25 square inches in maids from the larvae and eggs to be non-material is usually in the eyes of six large cell in about 16 inches square.

The supply of maids from larvae royal food for three days only, then complete the feeding in the rest of the developed bees bread, which is a bee pollen mixed with honey.

When will the community in raising new queens turning some cells containing a narrow six-enriched eggs or larvae are small, which caused him under the age of three days to the queens houses and feed it the Royal all the time.

so we can say that The implication is that the bees that arise in the community according to their sex is determined by the following three factors :

1- The type of eggs:
Enriched produces females (queens or worker) and the resulting fertilized eggs, male .

2- Where to place the home and rearing the larvae:
workers usually kept in the cells of the six males in the narrow and wide cells and queens in the ownership of homes.

3- The type of food the larvae eat:
workers and male larvae eat the royal food for three days and then complete the bees fed with bread, and the erosion of queen larvae food for the royal stage all the time.
