What is honeycomb?
Honeycomb is a cluster of repeating hexagonal beeswax cells that fill the interior of a honey bee beehive. While adequate, this definition raises more questions than it actually answers. Let's take a closer look at this miraculous substance and its ingenious design!
Why do honeybees make beeswax comb?
Honeycomb is the internal structure of the honeybee hive. The come forms the "rooms" that are the home of the honeybee. A single hexagonal structure is known as a cell. Individual cells serve the colony in different ways. Upon returning from her mating flight, the queen bee lays her eggs in the cells that have been constructed by her female worker bees. These cells are known as brood cells and will serve as incubation chambers for developing honeybees. The brood cells are meticulously maintained by the female worker bees. After all the brood is the future of the colony!
