    Bees and honey

    Hi
    I'm new to the forum, so I apologise if this has been covered before.
    Does anyone else need more bees, or is it just me?
    I can't make honey fast enough. 🐝

    Honey is like milk for me. I have enough if I log in many times a day to collect but if I have a few days in a row when I don't play much, I run out. On those days I'm just really careful how I use it. I think they have made it that way on purpose to encourage you to log in more.

    No, everyone feels this pain, and the higher the level, the greater the pain. *sigh*

    Rarely ever enough honey - and I have to stop making it when I run out of axes to cut down my dead nectar flowers. If we get more bees (unlikely) we need more axes too.

    Agree! So the longer you play (and remember about your bees) the more honeycombs you can get to make honey. To remember it, for me it takes 37 minutes for the bees to collect honeycombs from the nectar bushes so I set the timer to 37 minutes for bees. Or put the tree next to the mailbox (or any other place) where you visit it often.

    I have trouble keeping up with bacon. I work, so I can't collect often. It has become a struggle to feed my animals and have enough bacon to produce items that require it. Same with honey, but I need bacon much more than honey.

    I do not have any problem with honey/wax.... Sometimes I am even able to sell some honey/wax in my RSS and it goes really quickly.

    My honey tree is between my field and my boat dock, so I can keep an eye on it very easily.

    However I do struggle a lot for bacon... and wool... and eggs...

    Eggs? How on earth do you struggles for eggs if you're on often enough not to struggle for honey? Very confused...unless you make lots of cakes & not many of the things that need honey/wax I guess. At least there are lots of egg in the DD!

    I can see how one can struggle for eggs. U collect the eggs and then right away make the items that require eggs, then u need eggs themselves for boat or town and the chickens aren't ready yet. Then you need to leave and can't wait.

    I struggle with eggs for that very reason. Also struggle on milk, because 6 of them sometimes go to the cats and kittens. I also struggle on lemons, olives, oranges, and peaches, because I only have 2 or 3 of them, because of the difficulties of getting axes.

    Haha You made me laugh

    One day I only produce honey pots, the following day only wax. I usually do not mix both.

    The way I have organised my feed mills makes one chicken pen completely useless and only 12 eggs available every hour. And that is not enough for the way I play.

    The first things I sell when my barn is full (and that happens often) are bacon pies and sheperds pie that I will need to bake again as soon as barn is upgraded. Plus I do not like my hot dog stand iddle... And feeding the dogs and puppies twice a day... Need way more bacon than what my pigs give me!!

    I like how everybody has a different way of playing Hay Day... Different struggles, different needs.. Makes it fun
