Bee House

A Bee House is a machine from Forestry used in beekeeping. It allows bees to produce bee products without the possibility of mutating. An Apiary is the more advanced version of a bee house, which allows the input bees to mutate. Bees can produce a large variety of products. Most bees usually only produce combs, but a small handful also produce other items.

GUI
The GUI has several features. The bee progress bar is at the far left; it will bee grey when there are no bees using the machine. Next to the bee progress bar is the princess/queen and drone slots, where the player can input their bees. The top slot is for princesses and queens, while the bottom is for drones only. The slots that are shaped like honey comb is where the bee products are stored. As the bee progress bar shrinks and changes from green to red the bee will create bee products. Those bee products will slowly start popping up in the honey comb section.

Statuses
At the far right of the GUI is the statuses. You can click these statuses to see more information. This image currently has 4 statues showing.

First Status
The first status will notify you if a bee is or isn't able to breed. If this status is not showing that means the bees are able to breed. Here are some reasons why this status might show.
 * There are no bees in the bee slots.
 * The environment is deadly for the bee.
 * There are no or incorrect flowers.
 * Incorrect time of day.

Second Status
The second status shows you the statistics for the environment the bee house is located in. This is helpful because it will tell the player what bees will or wont breed in this environment.

Third Status
The third status will generate a random tip for using the bee house. These tips shuffle through every time you open the GUI.

Fourth Status
The fourth status will display a few buttons. These buttons allows the player to lock the bee house from other players. This status is only useful when playing multiplayer.
