Black Australorp Hen

[Molliep2]

Has anyone ever had a Black Australorp hen that's a bully? I have three hens and they all got along just fine up until a couple weeks ago. The Australorp started to jump on and be sort of aggressive towards the same chicken time I would let them out. I separated her because I don't want the drama. She is still bullying the same exact hen to this day. Any thoughts?

She is about a year and a couple months

How big is your set up? Australorp tend to be a more busy breed that needs plenty of room to burn off excess energy. Has anything changed in the last month or so?

In my experiences Australorp aren't meek. If yours is dominant than she may just like to make sure the others know it.

There’s a lot of room. She is the last on the pecking order and the very least dominant. She’s never been a bully before. She’s the only one that doesn’t lay eggs

How big is coop and run, in feet by feet?
Dimensions and pics might really help here.

Pecking orders do change, that might be what's going on here, with just 3 birds it can be chaotic.
