How are queen bees and ants made if all of the eggs that hatch are male bees and ants?

Question

I never understood where the queen bee/ant came from if all the eggs that are hatched are always males/normal sized bees.

Answer 1

Ok, so there's three types of bees: Queen, worker, and drone. Drones are feritle and male, meaning they can mate. They can mate with the queen so much that the queen bee can reproduce eggs for the rest of her life. However, the eggs will hatch into females. Always. Sometimes, she will make a drone.

Worker Bees, like i said before, are female, only they are sterile. That means, they cannot produce eggs. The queen bee does not want competition.

And queen bees can only be made by a special process: The queen bee larvae MUST be (and i mean MUST BE) fed with royal jelly. There can be multiple queens in the hive, BUT one queen will kill the rest.

Want more info? Look up bees in Wikipedia.

Answer 2

Most bees in the hives are females (workers) they do all the pollinating. A smaller group are males (drones) they never leave the hive, all they do is mate with the queen. Any worker (females) can be chosen as queen. They are just overfed and over sexed. Where did you get the whacky idea that they are all males?

Answer 3

most of the eggs are female...the queen bee will lay male female and queen egg according to the size of the comb she is laying eggs in...if the hive needs a new queen they will make a larg penut shaped comb and the queen will lay an egg in it...then they will feed the egg royal jell...then they hatch a queen bee.

Answer 4

male ants and bees are called "drones" and they die after mating
