hello, I've had two black sister australorps for the past 6 months and I introduced an adult blue australorp yesterday. the blue is a little bigger than them but she is very gentle and the other two have been pecking her/bullying her to the point where they aren't letting her eat or lay an egg and I noticed some dried blood on her comb today she doesn't fight back at all and instead continues to follow the two black ones around. they roosted together the first night fine but tonight the two weren't allowing it so I had to put the blue in a separate area. I can't afford to expand my coop right now where they roost but I do have a runner attached. They all usually free range in my large backyard. Any advice on how to stop this bullying? should i let the blue free range while keeping the black ones in their coop for a few days?
