Buzzlegum
Why do Buzzlegums make honey? I think it's a bribe so we'll be their friends. I mean, without the delicious, sweet honey, you're left with nothing more than a fat wasp.

The Buzzlegum is a yellow bee piñata. It has black antennae, a red star pattern around its eye, and brown irises. It has two elongated wings and six short, red legs. It has a round, plump body with thick black stripes through it, the black stripes have orange zig-zags in them.

Commonly Asked Questions

How do I get the Buzzlegums to make honey?

Make sure you've bought a Honey Hive from Willy Builder -- it's in the Special Buildings section, and isn't the same building as the Buzzlegum house. Once a Buzzlegum is ready to produce honey, direct your Buzzlegum into it. After it's been through the Hive, direct it to a Daisy (or a Buttercup in Pocket Paradise) to prepare it to make honey again. Buying a accessory for your Buzzlegum will automate the honey production process.

Do Buzzlegums make honey? I direct the bees to the hive but the hive doors won't open?

There are a few reasons why this may happen:

• Your garden is full of produce. Sell some to make room for more.

• The Buzzlegum isn't ready to produce honey. Direct it to a daisy.

• The Honey Hive needs plenty of room around it -- it has both front and back doors, and if either door is blocked, the Buzzlegums won't enter.

Glitches

• Due to an error, in the original Viva Piñata, the alert for a visiting Buzzlegum states that the requirement met was that there are enough different types of flowers in the garden. The actual requirement is simply to have enough Buttercup flowers, and other flowers do not count towards the requirement.

Trivia

• Buzzlegums dislike being watered from the watering can.
• The Buzzlegum resembles the Bee transformation from the Banjo-Kazooie series.
