They can hold 255 max, 40-42 is what they make per day if they produce

Just wondering if 250 honey was the max limit per beehive? Or is that 250 number for all the 20 of my beehives put together ?

255per hive..

i think it was said in like 3posts + the quotes.

Whew, ok. I thought they could do 255 per day. That would be insane levels of gold.

I got a question. I was wondering if this is doable/work. Or is it a waste. I was wondering if I could put like 2 sets of 20 hives in 1 house. I ve got 2 houses so that will be 2 sets of 20 hives=80 hives total. I was wondering if they would work if I put 2 sets of 20 in my house. I was thinking of putting a set of 20 uptop and set of 20 down below it on bottom floor. Or maybe 20 hives on far left(west) side and then 20 on the right(east ) side.

It is per ACCOUNT

So doing all that isn't going to work? And you say 20 hives per account since everybody is saying 20 hives.. So how come people are doing 40 hives? 40 hives really a waste and having 20 would just make as much product as 40 did on 1 acct?

people are saying 40 as in how much honey they make per day

But the thing Is people normally have 20 beehives in a house. I was wondering if I could make 4 sets of (20) hives. And put 1 set of 20 on one level. Then place the 2cd set of (20) on the next level and raise all 40 hives in 1 house without an issue? Also if that works I planned on doing 2 sets of (20) hives = 40 hives per house x 2 houses = 80 hives total between the two houses.. And wondering if this is profitable or just plan lose money/bad/not work?

it counts your beehives on your account. period. doesn't matter where they are. your house in trammel. your beach house in vesper. auntie bees butter churning facility in northern ireland. on the moon.

PER ACCOUNT.

Why don't you test it and let us know? If you read back older posts you will see that some players gets better results at 20 - 24 beehives... I had 25 now down to 24 because it was too much work and lots of unproductive beehives. So, take the challenge make your 80 hives and keep us updated

Since I don't know the actually amount of beewax and honey 20 hives normally should produce. I dont know what to exspect with 80 hives in groups of 20. lol So I could make it and just take care of it and never know if really iam wasting money on keeping them up..

You could do yourself a favor and read this topic from the beginning. Really. The calculations on the average output of the hives has been done here already, on the first page of posts if I recall correctly. There was also a 38 hive experiment done, proved not profitable.

But reading is a dying skill, eh?

Well I decided not to go and try this since I think Iam getting screwed wit 2 sets of 20 hives now. Kinda sounds like people are getting the same amount of gold with 1 set then my two sets. Just stinks
