@EmmaDonovan , how are you doing now? Any improvements with the chickens behaviour? Hope your eyesight isn’t worsening 
.
I have been reading this thread again and there is one thing I like to add about the chickens to all what is said. I don’t know if I missed anything and you already tried. Sorry if it’s not a good idea and of no use.
You say the leghorns behaviour is the worst in the coexistence of your flock. And that your roommate doesn’t want to rehome any of the chickens. Is that a no go even if they get a better place to live?
If you have keep them all, I would build or buy a small coop with run and separate these 2 from the rest. See if things get better after a while. Maybe more space for the others and less bullying really helps.
And I want to share an experience my MIL had. Probably no help but maybe a second opinion can do wonders? My MIL had very bad eyesight and the doctor said it was bc of her rheumatism and the medication she had taken all these years. Nothing to do about it.
But they were wrong. Finally someone had a proper look and discovered it was cataracts. She had an easy operation and could see way better directly after.
Wishing you the best. Hope you give a reaction. But I understand if you don’t like to respond.
