The Alveary is an advanced variant of the Apiary. It offers a significant speed advantage over the Apiary. It also has expansion blocks that obviate the need for certain tolerances in your bees.
Frames cannot be added to the Alveary normally; however, production in the Alveary is always more than that which would be produced in an Apiary with three standard frames. However, it cannot take advantage of the special frames added by Extra Bees or Thaumicbees without using a Frame Housing.
To build an Alveary you will need 27 Alveary blocks. The blocks need to be placed as a 3x3x3 cube and then the top covered with wooden slabs (use vanilla wood, as it doesn't seem to like redwood slabs). Some of the blocks can be replaced with expansion blocks:
- Heaters or Fans to adjust temperature
- Hydroregulators to adjust humidity
- Rain Shields and Lighting to allow your bees to work in the rain and at night respectively
- Mutators to increase the chance of breeding new bee species
- Frame Housings to allow the use of frames
- Swarmers to create additional (temporary) princesses
Each of these blocks is created using an Alveary block as one of its components. Heaters, Fans and Hygroregulators are available in Forestry while for the Frame Housing, Rain Shield, Lighting and Mutator blocks you need the Extra Bees mod.
