<P> In entomology , the term brood is used to refer to the embryo or egg , the larva and the pupa stages in the life of holometabolous insects . The brood of honey bees develops within a bee hive . In man - made , removable frame hives , such as Langstroth hives , each frame which is mainly brood is called a brood frame . Brood frames usually have some pollen and nectar or honey in the upper corners of the frame . The rest of the brood frames cells may be empty or occupied by brood in various developmental stages . During the brood raising season , the bees may reuse the cells from which brood has emerged for additional brood or convert it to honey or pollen storage . Bees show remarkable flexibility in adapting cells to a use best suited for the hive 's survival . </P>
