Bee Hive is a machine that can be used to house up to four Bees or Pink Bees that will produce Honeycombs and Pink Honeycombs over time. A Bee Hive with four Pink Bees in it will produce unique Giant Pink Honeycombs.

Obtaining

Bee Hive can be crafted via the Crafting menu using the following:
Wood (25)
Silk Rope (1)
Brick (3)

A free Bee Hive can be picked up from the gated area south of Freya's that can be unlocked using a Community Gate Key or a Master Key.

Use

Bee Hive can be placed on the farm but will not start producing until at least one Bee is placed in it. Every farm will produce one Honeycomb or Pink Honeycomb regardless of how many Bees or Pink Bees it has. The base production time for a Bee Hive is 142 hours, reduced by 24 hours for every Bee or Pink Bee placed in it.

Workers	Production time
Bee or Pink Bee (1)	118 hours (4 days 22 hours)
Bee or Pink Bee (2)	94 hours (3 days 22 hours)
Bee or Pink Bee (3)	70 hours (2 days 22 hours)
Bee or Pink Bee (4)	46 hours (1 day 22 hours)

A Red or a Rainbow Pixie can be placed on an active Bee Hive to reduce its production time by 50% and 80% respectively.
