But they will not let her into the coop at night. One of them will get up and chase her out

What happens if you manually put her on the roost once it's dark?

So far so good. Left the pop door open last night and she was the first one out in the morning. My boyfriend said they have been pecking at her butt a little bit but no blood has been drawn. I’m hoping after today they’ll be fine with eachother

I caught this on the camera. It seems like two of the three hens keep pecking at her and chasing her. Not sure what else i can do honestly.

I’m having somewhat of a similar issue, I have 4 older hens that are 3 years old. They are the “top” hens in my flock of 16 tow of them being roosters. I know 4 of my younger pullets are laying and my older top hens are not. With that being said my top hens like to hang out in the coop sometimes during the day and scratch around in the bedding(hay) and when the pullets come in to get into a nesting box to lay they chase them out. I’m at a loss on what to do about it. Some of my pullets won’t even go in there when the top hens are in there. Any ideas what to do????
