The main role of drone bees in a colony is to mate with the queen bee. Drone bees do not have stingers and do not help to collect food or take care of the hive. They are only responsible for mating with the queen bee and passing on her genes to the next generation of bees.
The main role of drone bees in a colony is to mate with virgin queens from other colonies. They do not participate in foraging, nursing, or defending the hive. They are expelled from the colony during times of scarcity.
