Honey production

The Buzzlegum can produce honey. Simply buy a Honey Hive from Willy Builder, then send your Buzzlegum into it. When your honey has been made, you need to feed the Buzzlegum a Daisy to prepare it to make honey again. The Beekeeper Hat accessory effect prompts your Buzzlegum to produce honey automatically.

Other information

  • The Buzzlegum resembles the Bee transformation from the Banjo-Kazooie series.


Commonly asked questions
How do I get the Buzzlegums to make honey?

Make sure you've bought a Honey Hive from Willy Builder -- it's in the Special Buildings section, and isn't the same building as the Buzzlegum house. Once a Buzzlegum is ready to produce honey, direct your Buzzlegum into it. After it's been through the Hive, direct it to a Daisy to prepare it to make honey again.

Buying a Beekeeper Hat accessory for your Buzzlegum will automate the honey production process. View thread


Do buzzlegums make honey? I direct the bees to the hive but the hive doors won't open?

There are a few reasons why this may happen:

  • Your garden is full of produce. Sell some to make room for more.
  • The Buzzlegum isn't ready to produce honey. Direct it to a daisy.
  • The Honey Hive needs plenty of room around it -- it has both front and back doors, and if either door is blocked, the Buzzlegums won't enter.
