Recently got two new battery ex battery chickens to Provide my bantam with company but my bantam just bullies them by pecking and generally avoids them. Even leaves the coop if they go in only had these 2 new chicks for 2 days but I was wondering will things even out? How long? Anything I can do? Should Interefere when my bantam attacks?
My chickens a bully... HELP!

Most people let them work it out as long as no blood is drawn. They have to establish their pecking order.
They will hopefully settle things themselves. As long as the bantam doesn't persist in pecking - as long as she backs off then things are OK. You don't want to see blood drawn. Sounds like the normal pecking order. The other two are not her flock yet - or so she feels.
