The apiary houses your bees and shelters working queen bees. It also allows princesses and drones to mate. There are several conditions that need to be statisfied for a healthy queen to start producing:

•It must not be raining.
•The apiary's view of the sky must not be obstructed.
•It must be day.
•There needs to be at least one flower in the immediate vicinity.
•You must be playing Dorf Sciences

Apiary does not require power to operate and will occasionally spawn flowers around it while operating. Buildcraft pipes are able to remove bee products, bee princesses, and bee drones from the side of the Apiary. The Apiary accepts bee queens or bee princesses through pipes connected to the top and bee drones through pipes connected to the bottom. It is not possible to put more than one bee princess, even of the same type, in the top slot but the bottom slot will accept more than one drone assuming they are of the same type.
