Here is something we don’t see too often: An otherwise healthy drone Bee that has White Eyes! No, this is not a Zombie Bee lol

These white-eyed drones appear perfectly normal; they move around the hive like other bees, eat honey, relax, and live an apparently normal drone bees’ life. Don’t be fooled however, life is not normal for them. There will never be any mating; no flights, no flying to drone congregation areas, nor looking for queens. These drones are more or less stuck inside the hive; because, due to their white eyes, they are blind.

Why is it that only drones show the white-eyed mutation, but not the workers bees? The answer lies in how recessive genes work.

Among bees in a hive, drone bees are more apt to express mutations from recessive genes than other bees. A drone bee is unique and different from the two types of female bees (workers and queen bees) in that it is developed from an unfertilized egg. As a result, a drone bee has only one set of chromosomes (effectively only one parent). Therefore, with only one set of chromosomes, recessive genes can be expressed more readily without being overridden by a corresponding dominant gene.

Worker bees develop special wax producing glands on their abdomens that are the most productive on the 10th to 16th day of there lives, this gland converts sugar, from consumed honey, into a waxy substance and deposits small flakes on the surface of their abdomen. These flakes are chewed by bees in the colony and then added to the foundation (black in the picture) one tiny piece at a time to build the honey comb. We call this process “drawing out a frame”.

It takes aprox 6-8 lbs of honey to produce 1 lb of wax and 1 lb of wax will fill 6-10 of the frames pictured below. It takes 7 days - 2 months to build out each frame and fill it with honey, depending on the strength of the hive.

This is a picture of our bees drawing out a new frame this summer. Once complete, this is where the bees will store there pollen, honey, and the queen will lay her eggs.
How cool is that!!!

A worker Bee gathers in Her lifetime about .8 gram or 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey. It requires aprox 556 bees, flying about 55,000 miles to gather 1 pound of honey. They will visit approximately 2 million flowers to accomplish this task… in a single trip She will visit 50-100 flowers and fly up to 5 miles from the hive!! Are you as Busy as a Bee?

Athabasca Honey is highly sought after because the bees use the nectar of clover in the production of their honey ! This produces a lighter colored honey with a wonderful mild taste.... Clover Honey offers too many health benefits to list and is known to be high in Flavanols and Phenolic Acid, two anti-inflammatory antioxidants known for providing several health benefits including improving heart health and protecting the central nervous system.
