hmm. lol. why would you wanna know?
well ok.
On average, a bee weighs a tenth of a gram. On average, from 12 to 16 millimeters (about ½ to 5/8 inch for workers. Queens and Drones are longer.
Life expectancy depends on the time of year and the caste of bee. Queens can live up to three years. Drones die when they mate or if they have not mated by the beginning of winter, they are ejected from the colony to die. During late spring, summer and early fall, a Worker will live only about 6 weeks. When born, Workers serve as nursery workers for some 2 weeks. After that they collect nectar and pollen until they die. Workers born in late fall, will live some 4 to 5 months, so that they can keep the Queen warm during the winter months.

Good question. I would guess about half a gram. But that could be way off. Erm... let's see now...
Nope. Sorry, can't see any bees around here. Next time I do see one however, I will be sure to weigh it in case I ever need to know.
