Minecrafts Bee nests spawn naturally in most forest biomes. If players are looking to make a honey farm, they will need to find a bee nest at some point.

A sapling will have a 5% chance to spawn a bee nest if it is grown within 2 blocks of a flower. You can speed up the tree’s growth by using bonemeal.

Usage[]

Bee nests and beehives can house up to 3 bees at a time. They can enter through any unobstructed side, top, or bottom, but can exit only from the front, and only if its unobstructed by a solid block (including a non-full solid block in Bedrock Edition).

Bees fly into a nest or hive at night, during rain, and after loading up with pollen from a flower. They first look for one at the same coordinates as the last one they entered, but if theres no nest or hive there or it already contains 3 bees when they arrive, they search the nearby area for another one.

Igniting a nest or hive allows any bees inside to escape, possibly catching fire as they flee.

Fuel[]

In Bedrock Edition, beehives and bee nests can be used as fuel in a furnace, smelting 1.5 items per block.
