"Welcome to the world, little one.
Now clean your room."
The after 45 days they die?
Yep, only queens survive for several years.
After that they go to the giant beehive, filled to the brim with honey.
@partybot @codebam #Alt4You image description (you may be able to update your post to make it more accessible): “Worker Honey Bees have different jobs according to their age
1-2 days old: have the job to clean the cells, and they start with the one they were born in. They also keep the brood warm
3-5 days old: their job is to feed older larvae
6-11 days old: they have the responsiblity to feed the youngest larvae… (1/2)12-17 days old: they are producing wax, carrying food, building combs and have undertaker duties
18-21 days old: they are protecting the hive entrance and have guard duty
From 22 days to the end of their life (at around 40-45 days): they fly from the hive and collect pollen, nectar, water etc.
