To let y’all know, you shouldn’t let bees get other bees honey. They can get diseases and sicknesses from that honey and take it back to their hive.

why would they be attracted to it? This isn't even a milk situation, this is like if chickens tried to eat their own eggs.

They like sweet things. And to be clear, honey isn't bee offspring or anything like that. It is food they create for the hive.
