Beekeepers take all the extra honey leaving just a bit for the hive itself. Do bees predict someone is going to take their honey? Do they make only a certain amount and then stop or so they just go ham and make as much as possible? Mmmm honey ham..

They don’t make extra honey. They collect enough to expand their colony. Every animal is opportunistic. If there is plentiful food they consume it and raise a larger brood/next generation and thrive. So with domesticated bees they are collecting honey with the intention of raising more queens and workers and more hives.
