I installed two new packages of bees into new hives with new foundation. 
Both queens tried to or were forced to leave the hives after being released. 
In the first hive the workers also left, but came back when the queen was 
put back into the hive.  The second hive I caught the queen and put her back 
before the workers left.  What would cause this to happen?
