gollark: Yes, this is I believe around the lifespan of worker bees in winter.
gollark: > However, worker bees that are born before winter will live 4 to 6 months. Their main job over winter is to keep the queen warm. They take turns being on the outer edge of the cluster where it is cooler, and circulate back towards the center where it is warmer.This might be where you got it from?
gollark: I see.
gollark: <@102038103463567360> The sources I can find on honey bee lifespans say it's only 6ish weeks.
gollark: @ubq323 how is progress with the apioformic rewrite?
