Beenests and beehives are blocks that house bees. Bee nests are found naturally, and beehives are crafted. They fill with honey as bees pollinate flowers and return to their homes and, when full, can either be sheared for honeycombs or honey bottles extracted using glass bottles.
Bee nests and beehives can house up to 3 bees at a time. They can enter through any unobstructed side, top, or bottom, but can exit only from the front, and only if it is unobstructed by a solid block (including a non-full solid block in Bedrock Edition).
Bees fly into a nest or hive at night, during rain, and after loading up with pollen from a flower. They first look for one at the same coordinates as the last one they entered, but if there is no nest or hive there or it already contains 3 bees when they arrive, they search the nearby area for another one.
Each time a bee enters a nest or hive covered in pollen, it starts converting it to honey and honeycomb. After it is done, it waits for daylight with no rain (if necessary), then exits to go collect more pollen. When the bee exits, the nest or hive increments its honey level by 1, to a maximum of 5. Once it is full, it changes its appearance to show honey oozing out and, if the block below it is not a full solid block, starts dripping honey particles. (The dripping honey is decorative; it cannot be collected in a cauldron.) These changes signal that the hive or nest is ready for harvesting.
To harvest honey, the player uses a glass bottle on the nest or hive; the bottle then becomes a honey bottle. To harvest honeycomb, the player uses shears on the nest or hive, causing it to drop three honeycomb items. After harvesting, the hive or nest is reset to empty (honey level 0, with the default appearance).

I don't have silk touch so I can't take them with me in the existing hive. I hold a flower and they follow me to the new hive, but as soon as I stop holding the flower, most of them start trying to fly back to the original hive, despite the fact that it's not that close or easy to get to. (The new hives are in a building up a bunch of stairs.)
I have tried boxing up the exits with dirt blocks so they can't escape and even putting flowers on those blocks, but even after keeping it this way for some time many of the bees still aren't interested in the new hives and try to escape as soon as a path is available.
It will likely be necessary to destroy the original hive, but this is risky due to the fact that the bees will aggro on you if you destroy it, and if a bee attacks you, they will die like real bees. I recommend trapping them in the location with the new hive, with a few flowers around, and destroying the old hive while waiting for the bees to unaggro and resume their normal activities.

3 can go into a hive at one time, so making a farm is most optimal at 6 bees, 3 outside working, and three in the nest, then i think its around 2700 ticks (if my math is right that should add up to 2 and a half mins) the bees will swap places.
You could do a controlled test. Be in creative, have one beehive or nest in a closed space, place flowers and bees (one bee at a time) then you can keep count of how many will go in the hive/nest. At night they should all enter one until it's full.
The command will either return a 0 or a 3, if it's three then there's a at least 1 bee in there. If there is, then repeat the command again, but replace the 0 with a 1, and so on, until you do it 3 times. Then the number of bees will be how many of the 3 commands returned the number 3.
Hives are structures found in the Nether (from versions 1.11.x). The outside of the hive is made of Hive Block. Inside the hive are Honeycomb Block, Empty Honeycomb Block, Filled Honeycomb Block, Honey Block and Liquid Honey. Breaking an Empty Honeycomb Block gives you Empty Honeycomb. Breaking a Filled Honeycomb Block gives you Filled Honeycomb, which can be eaten. Nether Wasp can be found in and around the hive.
There are two types of Hives, one type with a hollow inside, often with spawners within the thick walls and the other type, which is hollow on the top, but there is a level halfway through made of Honey Blocks, and below that is a pool of Liquid Honey. Each Hive generated has a 2 in 3 chance of spawning the type with Liquid Honey and Honey Blocks inside.
When crafting with wood planks, you can use any kind of wood planks, such as oak, spruce, birch, jungle, acacia, dark oak, mangrove, bamboo, crimson, warped or cherry planks. In our example, we are using oak planks.
When making a beehive, it is important that the wood planks and honeycombs are placed in the exact pattern as the image below. In the first row, there should be 3 wood planks. In the second row, there should be 3 honeycombs. In the third row, there should be 3 wood planks. This is the Minecraft crafting recipe for a beehive.

Interested in learning how to farm Bees in Minecraft? While they can just be adorable pets, Bees in Minecraft can also come in handy in quite a lot of situations. They can help speed up the growth of your plants, thanks to pollination, as well as help you get exclusive blocks like Honey and Honeycomb.
