I have a system where all the bees are getting pumped from a chest (chest1) to my apiaries. Bees that wont fit ore bees that are being made in the apiaries will then go into another chest(chest2), from that chest(chest2) it gets pumped into my analyzer and then pumped out into chest 1 again so it can be pumped out to all my apiaries.
That sounds worse than the Yogscast bee breeding system.
If you insist on using that horrible system, I would look into the computercraft analyzer. It allows you to use computers to collect data on the traits of analyzed bees.

I have changed my system so that the bees going to the apiaries goes directly into the same chest pumping it out to the apiaries again. And the bees coming out from the apiaries goes trough the analyzer. I was just hoping that there were a way to sort them so I don't manually have to put all non-analyzed bees into the chest that goes to the analyzer. But now I have done that and I don't need a way to sort them anymore. But does forestry have an API for computercraft?
That bee analyzer from Misc peripherals sounds awesome if you can get all data from the bees and maybe sort out bees with unwanted effects 
I am definitely taking a look at it and maybe I can sort away my bees that causes lightening strikes and burning down my trees

I hate the way the Yogs have done bee breeding.
So many pointless, horrible threads about breeding via this random mix of crap...
I understand that they bring popularity, but when something is as well documented as bees, and they refuse to seek any of it, it has the knock-on effect of doing this to each and every one of their subs who doesn't watch any "intelligent" lets plays/tutorials/spotlights.

the best was to breed bees is a direct loopback with apiarists pipes and catch the overflow which will contain both the combs and excess drones in a single pipe like DW20 did here
Thing is.
That works for breeding imperial and industrious bees.
Nothing else.
In fact, with extra bees, there's a risk of this producing some ancient bees also, as they are noble+dilligent.
For the more complicated combinations, manual breeding is required,
Particularly for bees of the rusty branch.

Once you've manually bred your bee and have stable stackable drones, then you can feed them into an automated loop system, any excess bees can be turned to DNA. If you want to extract the traits, just grab half a stack from the relevant apiary.
Trying to automate mutations with breeding for products is a bit of a mess. I currently use 3 apiaries for manual breeding and analyzing, and 8 apiaries with all the bee species I've found/bred to date.

This ^

You cannot automate bee breeding it's a manual job, anyone that tries will end up with allsorts of bees and..... ack it doesn't even bare thinking about the mess you'd end up in. I manually bred bees in an Alveary and did 1 bee mutation always successful on the first attempt with 1 frame (soul frame) and 1 mutator (Uranium).
That can breed up to, and only to imperial, and industrious bees.
Any of the really fancy ones, the ones people want, such as distilled/refined, radioactive, diamond, valuable...
All these are complex mutations, and trying to automate these is impossible due to the twisty nature of the species.
