In the average honeybee colony there is one queen who lays the eggs; up to about 200 drones (males), who do no work; and between 20,000 and 50,000 worker bees. The worker bees are all female but do not normally lay eggs.

In a hive of honey bees (Apis Mellifera) there are three different types of bees. There is just one queen who is basically an egg laying machine. There will be several hundred drones (male bees) whose only purpose is to mate with a virgin queen. All the other bees in the hive (up to 80000) are workers, who are infertile females.
