The Elastic Bee is a type of Bee added by Extra Bees and the final member of the Refined Branch. It makes two useful combs, both of which can be processed into Rubber with IndustrialCraft² is available. Latex Combs will make rubber if any mod registers OreDict:itemRubber in the Ore Dictionary, such as Tech Reborn or MineFactory Reloaded. Without Sticky Resin, Amber Combs do not have any useful produce.

Requirements

Pure Elastic Bees require a Normal Climate and Normal Humidity to make their specialty, and at least one Flower - either of the two vanilla flowers or any of the flowers added by ExtrabiomesXL or Biomes O' Plenty. Like all species, their traits can be modified through Bee Breeding.

Production

Elastic Bees produce Amber Combs every 7.6 minutes (10% rate) and their specialty Latex Comb every 15.3 minutes (5% rate). Note that production times are an approximation based on the bee's base production speed and the product's rarity. They do not reflect actual production time. Sticky Resin requires IndustrialCraft² installed.
