In a prolific bee hive, the queen may run out of room to lay new eggs. Half of the bees will leave with the old queen in a swarm to start a new colony. Remaining workers take care of a newly hatched queen who will take over the old queen's egg-laying duties. Swarmers rest on a tree limb while scout bees seek a suitable spot for a new hive. The process may take anywhere from a few hours to a few days with the bees living without a hive until they find their new home
