I have three week-old EE pullets, and I've noticed in the last day or two that one of them (the biggest) is starting to harass the other two very regularly. She's mostly pecking at them, but sometimes seems to be shoving them away from the food/water dish, too. Should I be worried about this at all, or is this simply her way of establishing herself as the dominant hen in her little flock? Or...worst case scenario...maybe she's a roo?!

I should specify that these are three one-week-old EEs, not three-week-old EEs! That was a little confusing.
