Fertility
Fertility is a trait of Bees that describes how many drones a Queen will produce at the end of her lifecycle. Fertility does not affect the number of Princesses, which will always be one unless the Queen is of Ignoble Stock.
Normal bees have a Fertility value ranging from low (1x) to maximum (4x), meaning anywhere from one to four drones will be produced along with the single princess. Low (1x) and normal (2x) are dominant genes, high (3x) and maximum (4x) are recessive. Like most traits, Fertility can be extracted into Serums with an Isolator.
Ignoble Bees[edit]
These Princesses will die out after a few generations at most and pass the Ignoble Stock state onto any offspring, thus are only useful for temporary gains. The Ignoble Stock state is the result of Princesses created through use of a Swarmer or less commonly, inferior Serums used to inoculate a bee. This state cannot be bred out.
Bee Species by Fertility[edit]
Any species not listed below can be assumed to have the normal (2x) Fertility trait.
