The queen honeybee lays the eggs that hatch into thousands of workers. Laying eggs is the queen's only job. She does not gather food or help build the nest. The workers feed her and care for her. The queen honeybee does not rule the colony, but she is the force that holds it together. The workers become excited and disorganized if she is not in the nest. 3, record 1, English, - queen%20bee
