About Beehive
The Beehive is a wooden home for bees, much like the bee nest found in the wild. You can place it near flowers and existing bees will use it as a home, collect pollen, and gradually fill it with honey.
Key facts:
- Houses up to three bees.
- Fills through five honey levels while bees work.
- Emits a redstone comparator signal that matches its honey level.
- At honey level 5, use shears to collect honeycomb or a glass bottle to collect honey.
If you harvest from a hive without calming the bees first, the bees will turn hostile. A campfire placed under the hive keeps them calm and safe to work with.
How to get Beehive
You get a Beehive by crafting it. You need six wooden planks of any type and three honeycomb. Honeycomb comes from shearing a full bee nest or hive, so a natural bee nest is usually your starting point. Beehives do not generate naturally in the world.
