RE: i want to know more about beehives
In the wild, bees make their hives inside hollow trees or caves. Domestic bees live in hives made by humans, usually of wood or straw. I believe you are asking how the honeycomb is made, and that is something the bees make themselves. Young worker bees make the wax in special glands on the bottom side of their abdomens. It forms thin scales on the abdomen, and the bees chew that until it is pliable and use it to form honeycomb.
