Well I created a new world, found a wild hive and placed the flowers and within 5 minutes got the "Will swarm in aprox. 6 days" tag. Same settings and mods, I was going to use the world seed once I found the hive with various mods disabled but I didn't need to try that tho'

Next thing is to see if the original world seed works in a new world, but it's looking like something is messed up in that particular world. So much time

Thanks for your help Hal it was very useful

Thanks for the reply

I updated the main post above with the version and mods I use.

It shouldn't be the area issue you mentioned I built a hut next to it (within 20 blocks) and AFK'ed it for a whole season, just checking the hive, eating and sleeping, as I thought chunk loading might have been an issue.

Guess it's time to make some test worlds and try it with individual mods

Thanks for your help tho

Hi

I seem to have a problem with wild hives not swarming,I have tried all the suggestions with several hives that I have found

The example in the image below is a medium hive, with 28 accessible flowers, a large population, and an empty skep within 7 blocks I have waited nearby from April through to June so I believe this should be enough time.

I have tried this with other hives, some large, and with 100+ flowers, they still wont swarm. even after a long time the hive never updates with a "Will swarm in x days" tag

Any suggestions or is this a bug?

Version 1.16.5
