I seriously doubt the will jump on board. You will need to 'capture'
the hive. There are a dozen ways to do this. Sometimes when a hive
will 'swarm' (give gets so big a new queen and a portion of bees will
set out on their own to find a home) you can take an empty box and
spray the inside with lemon 'Pledge' they will move into the box on
their own. You then locate the queen, put her in your un-inhabited hive
and the rest of the swarm will follow her in.
