About:
Productive Bees builds on the content added by Minecraft 1.15 and adds additional bees and advanced beehives allowing you to put your bees to work creating resources fully automated. Productive bees are just as derpy as it's vanilla cousin, but makes up for it in usefulness and bee-uty.
This mod adds bees for all vanilla resources as well as your favorite modded resources like copper, lead, silver etc. There are also a lot of bees for mod specific resources for mod like Mystical Agriculture, Silents Gems, Powah, Tinkers Construct, Thermal and many more. In total you can find more than 150 bees if the relevant mods are installed.
We also add up to 32 variants of a new advanced beehives for the bees to live in.
The mod is fully customizable, you can add your own bees, disable existing bees and change the production resources and rates.
It is recommended to use JEI for looking up breeding recipes and Patchouli for ingame documentation.

Trying to breed Prosperibees, but they don't seem to be making eggs. I put them in a small room with flowers and gave them both flowers, but they're not breeding.
Hi, I can't seem to get the neon cuckoo bee to spawn. It says it will lay its eggs in the nests of the Blue Banded Bee, but what does that mean? Do I need to have an Oak nest with a blue banded bee just sitting around for a while, or will a hive work? Using a lot honey treats when there is a blue banded bee from the nest doesn't seem to work either. Any suggestions?
In reply to StephanieIsCrayz:
Yes you just need to have a nest with a blue banded bee. Make sure it has flowers as it's with each nectar trip there's a chance for a neon cuckoo to spawn.
In reply to LobsterJonn:
Thanks! I didn't have any flowers nearby.
I'm playing with other mods and my world generator is Biomes o' plenty, I'm having trouble finding bees, like I really can't find not even one. Is there mods that can overwrite productive bees? I set my nest locator to 1000 to see if I'd find anything and went out into the world but nothing..
The mods do appear in my list and I can look up stuff from it in JEI. They're just impossible to find. All I can find are regular vanilla minecraft bees and nests.
What can I do?
In reply to angelzs2_:
Which version are you playing on?
There's always the option of crafting the bee nests yourself, placing them in the world (in a valid biome for that nest) and use some honey treats on it. This will start a countdown for a new bee to move in. More treats will speed it up.
In reply to LobsterJonn:
I'm playing on 1.18.2
There is that option but I'd like to explore and find them out there. If not I'll just have to go with your option
In reply to angelzs2_:
I don't know what BOP (and BYG for that matter) does to worldgen and I haven't had time to look into it since it started being a problem.
i am going to downlaod this mod anywhere else than curseforge
In reply to minecrafterboy12:
You do you, just don't come complaining if it has issues.
For some reason there doesn't seem to be a way to add the bee hive upgrades to the advanced bee hives. Is this true or am I just missing something?
In reply to bulldawgs2021:
The upgrades are added to the expansions which connect to the advanced bee hive :)
In reply to Siddie:
^ this, put an expansion box on your hive
Suggestion:
Genetic Immunity
- Prismarine Bees have immunity to drowning damage
- Magmatic Bees have immunity to fire damage
- a desert bee that flowers with cactii and produces Prickly Combs that combine to make cactus blocks has immunity to pricking
- Ender Bees have immunity to suffocation and, if they would take suffocation damage, they look for open air within a 10x10x5 radius and teleport to it.
such immunities are represented as genes and can be given to other bees
In reply to Incalizymaedriax:
They do have these immunities already, but they are not part of the genetic system unfortunately. I am planning a rewrite of the gene to include more things one of which will be immunities. I just don't have the time yet to do it.
Why the glow bees dont produce anything, what i have to do
In reply to hastalaselotas:
Each resource bee needs it's own flower block, JEI will tell you what it is. For Glowing bees, it's glowstone.
