One of my new chickens is being bullied

That is what I’m worried about. We did do a slow introduction through the chicken wire and everything actually went well for a while. We are suddenly experiencing this out of the blue and I’m getting concerned for my one very timid girl. She isn’t doing too well standing up for herself so I’m just wondering if I should isolate the bullies as a last resort.
Can you post pictures of your set up and include dimensions?
How many chickens total do you have?
What ages?
Successful integration takes time, LOTS of space, lots of resources and places to get the heck out of the way of the higher ranking birds. Trying to introduce birds into a small coop and run setup can be disastrous. Doing the exact same thing with the exact same birds in a 1/2 acre or more area with lots of structure and other things to do would be completely different.
