I'm making a bee farm. I acquired a bees nest and brought it to my desired location where I have a few bee hives I built. Two bees came out of the nest, a baby and an adult. I fed the baby flowers until it grew to an adult. Now there's only one bee. The other seemed to dissappear after the baby one grew into an adult. It's a protected area and the other bee did not die, it just disappeared. I then fully enclosed the area and brought two more bees into the area using a lead. I tied the leads to a fence post and sealed the area again. The bees went into a hive and have not come out. There's still only one bee to be found in my bee farm. Where's the other three bees?

I've left the area alone since I posted this (no modification and no more bees added, just left it as is). I've even stood there and watched for long periods of time too and checked it multiple in game days. I only see one bee at any given time. The other three don't seam to be there. Was wanting to breed them for more honey.
I haven't tried copying my world and breaking the nests yet. I'll fool around with it again soon to see if anything changes (check the nests, add more bees, re-do the enclosure, I dunno...).
Thank you for your report!

Did you try using shears on the beehive when all bees are inside? This should cause all of them to come out at once, so you can see how many are inside.

Looking at the screenshot, the bees must have gone into the hive with the flower in front of it. Flowers block bees from exiting, but not from entering. See MCPE-108391.
They may be coming out a different times. Did you wait a full Minecraft day and check at sunrise?
If you make a copy of the world and break the hives, do they come out? (MCPE-152593)
