Do you wish bees were more complicated? Do you miss features (that a certain much older mod had) that certain modern bee resource mods don't have, like actual diploid genetics? Do you really want to keep reading these rhetorical questions?

Find bees in the world, domesticate them, and crossbreed them to generate infinite resources - honey, mob drops, even ore resources like diamonds and netherite! This mod is also extremely configurable - almost everything in the mod can be configured and changed; add new bee species, combs, recipes, and more with a datapack - no extra addon mods required!

JEI is HIGHLY recommended to see recipes, mutations, and bee products. Patchouli is also recommended to enable an in-game guide to the mod.
