Villager Addition - the Bee Keeper

The villagers are bored, they need a new member to interact with… the Bee Keeper!  Bee Keeper villagers spawn/generate/get a job when a beehive (not nest) is placed. The Bee Keepers trade in honey, honeycomb, honey bottles, flowers, resin, honey block, honeycomb block, and beehives. The villagers already have a fisherman, a farmer, and a shepherd, so why not a bee keeper!

    I love this idea it would be a great addition to the game. Villages are so boring and bland this would make it great. I feel like the houses should have a tree with a bee hive ofc in their yard. And probably a chest with honey bottles, bread ect and I can see this in game.

    Maybe not the resin. That is supposed to naturally be hard to get, and this feels like it takes all the use out of endangering yourself by exposing yourself to a Creaking just to get Resin (what else do you go after Creakings for, anyway?). I do like the idea, though. Maybe they could sell suspicious stew, since they’re selling flowers.

    Beekeepers should be able to have the right tools to harvest nests.. sheers wont do.. they need to be able to have portable smoker cans, scrapers to pop the tops of the hive open, much like a chest, make it sound like a sticky suctions, need to be able to craft a scraper tool that looks like a crowbar but its handheld, need to be able to set a bucket under the hive to harvest so you can walk away without the need to harvest the hive on the chance youre away from the apiary, beehives should give you way more comb than just 3, kind of like how lapis or copper gives you a bunch, honey slides should be added too in a player built hive. Ohh, add a slide spinner too it needs to be crafted alongside a hopper into a cauldron in order to work! The whole mechanism would be fun to see... I was a beekeeper, so if you need any advice as to how bees behave or how the hive behaves i can help put with that, but these are some of the basics a villager would need... OHH my gosh the villager should wear a a black and yellow bee suit: imagine he or she wearing a fully netted bee suit that kind of looks like a farmer only sealed in, but the hat would be adorable, it would have a yellow and black striped look with tiny bumblebee wings on the sides!!! Please mojang and microsoft, I have to have a true apiary with craftable tools and a villager that sells buckets of honey or bee hive components with the mesh screens and a honey scraper knife with a bee suit!!! Pleeeeeeeease!
