A while ago I got chickens at about 3 weeks. They should we around 20-30 weeks now, but we figured out all of them are girls. We have a Dominique, EE, Splash Ameraucana, and RIR. Recently, The Dominique seemed to start bullying the EE. It pecked and hurt the EE and now the EE is scared. They all lay eggs, any problems?

 
Any photos of your set up? As long as the EE isn't being hurt to the point of injury or to where she can't eat, I'd consider that acceptable, but ideally you should offer them a few hiding areas in their run, along with multiple feeders placed far apart and behind obstacles, to minimize food guarding.
 
I just fed them and when I put it in their feeder, the Dominique started hogging the feeder and pecking the EE when it took more space. Im pretty sure it’s because the Dominique is hungry, not completely sure.
