Beehive
From Discworld MUD Wiki
(Redirected from Beehives)
A beehive houses bees, which produce honey. Beehives are usually visited by witches, looking for honey to use in casting Mother Feelbright's Busy Bees.
Getting honey from a beehive
To get honey from a beehive:
- Take the honeycombs out of it
- Find a vessel (such as a bottle).
- 'Shake <combs> into <vessel>'.
Beehive regeneration
Once a beehive has been emptied of its combs, it regenerates honey via the following stages:
- After about 15-30 minutes, combs will reappear. Initially they will have almost no honey in them.
- Over the next hour or so, the honey will build up inside the combs to the original maximum level.
Note that:
- There is no way to determine how much honey is in a comb, other than to shake it out.
- Casting Biddy Amble's Bee Buzzer on a hive increases its regeneration rate.
- Each hive has by default 4 combs in it.
