The diagram illustrates the various stagesof bees. This complete life cycle takes 34-36 days.
Overall, in this natural cycle, there are six main stages. These steps are starting from egg hatching to adult bee. The honey bees are growing rapidly and in a few days bees are ready for next production.
To begin with, the life cycle of the honey bee begins from the female lays an egg in every three days. After that, an egg is hatched after the 9 to 10 days time period. During the third stage of the process, the insect grows in size. Moulting take 5 days in this stage of the life cycle. After seven and nine days the size of bees are rapidly increasing.
The young honey bees emerge before 4 days of the final maturity stage. Finally, the bees are fully mature and this natural process will follow again for further production.
