This has been discussed before but this is the earliest reference I have seen:
> Dzierzon found that a queen which had been refrigerated for a long time, after being brought to life by warmth, laid only male eggs, whilst previously she had also laid female eggs. Berlepsch refrigerated three queens by placing them thirty-six hours in an ice-house, two of which never revived, and the third laid, as before, thousands of eggs, but from all of them only males were evolved.
