Went on a walkabout to gather Hives, needed to venture far to generate new biomes/chunks. Had collected 8 Hives before setting the game aside for about a month and have had this issue also.
Of possible interest, Iām able to move one of the hives in, around and from inventory to storage chests like usual. 7 will not move, glitching back to the spot they are stuck in. I believe I gathered 7 from a large Flower Forest biome and 1 from the edge of a Grassland biome during my wanderings. Is it possible the 7 from the Flower area are the ones that are stuck? Not likely since so many others have problems, by why does one move as normal?
Looking forward to this being resolved. Seems similar, for example, to two piles of Puffer fish that will not combine that I have.
Game version v1.14.60, been getting each update as they come out.
Perhaps obvious, but I got tired of having the previously unmoveable for months and now unplaceable and non-discardable Hives in inventory or storage, so I switched to creative, moved them to the hot bar and copied over them...then discarded whatever I copied over them with after switching back to survival.
A solution for anyone just wanting rid of them.
