Thank you for the feedback! The Easy Mob Farm relies on mob loot tables to generate corresponding drops.

In this case, bees typically don’t drop any items, so even if you kill them with a sword, arrow, lava, or water, they won’t drop anything, as their loot table is empty.

Would you be interested in a bee-specific item that could be farmed for honey or honeycombs, similar to the sheep enhancement?

Regarding the experience enhancement: bees only drop 1-3 XP orbs, which results in a low drop chance. The drop chance is set to 10%, and since only 3 orbs count, the chances are low when bees yield 0, 1, or 2 orbs.

On the other hand, Zombie Piglins consistently drop 5-12 XP orbs, with an additional 1-3 XP when they don't drop a gold sword. This makes it more likely to receive drops from them. With the latest update, however, you can adjust the drop chance in the config file to increase the drop rate if needed.
