Just don't!

>>250982 > It wouldn't be good to have them flying about in my room. If they're well fed and your room doesn't have any bright colours, that wouldn't be a problem. But NEVER EVER keep them indoors if your room is maller than something like a commercial sized greenhouse or at least a very large sports hall.
> What would I need to feed them water with lots of sugar added. Prerably in a bowl with flower like colours. You need to test a lot of different bowls and colours to find a form and colour which the bees recognize as "flower" and use. > and do they have physical problems if they don't receive enough exercise? No, but if you feed them too much, they will multiply like crazy. Dangerous situation!
>Perhaps I could mix multiple species and observe the ways they interact. Don't. They will fight each other to the death until only one tribe remains. Since within one hive all are genetically identical (except for the drones and the young future queens), they will protect their queen (an mother) from any possible problems. And other bees are problem, because they need the same food, and therefore are concurrents.
My advice, bury the whole idea and go to a beekeeper/apiarist/apiculturist and learn from him. Once you have a medium sized garden, you can keep a stock in your garden. Gives better honey, less dangerous for your personal health, and less problems with your landlord/parents.
