Hi, after some search i have found most of the bees from direwolf20 modpack. Just can't find forest bees, rocky and water.
Does anyone have any sugestions how to easily find those?

Thanks for all help.

Forest bees should be in the forest, I think they have red hives, but I am likely thinking of meadow bees as I just saw a hive of them last night so likely a white hive.

Rocky bees are found underground (if I remember correctly, and the billions of rocky drones and princesses from my quarry have anything to say about it). They have an off-white hive color (looks like rock).

Water bees are found underwater. They have blue hives, I think.

Forest bees are in trees.

Rocky bees are underground.

Water bees are underwater.

If memory serves, and it often does not, forest hives are white with a dark green/grayish stripe. They typically hide up in the trees and in my experience are always the last hive I find and the one I want the most.

It can help to run around during the night since they do produce light, but in my experience the lighting is typically glitched and as such they are pretty well hidden.

Meadows are red, rocky is grey and blend in really well with their smooth stone surroundings, and water is blue.

Without sounding condescending (which is hard)....

Water bees are in the water
Forest bees are in forest biomes
Rocky bees are in the rock (IE underground)

I found that the water bees were really hard to find. You'll find them 1 block under the water line around the edges of oceans and rivers. They don't give off any light but walking along the shoreline you should be able to spot them easily enough. Just be prepared for a long walk!

On a related note, does anyone know which flowers they need to breed? I've tried all the 'usual' flowery stuff but they refuse to do anything "couldn't find the right flowers".
