Hello and welcome to BYC! :frow Glad you joined.
Have you looked into converting a shed into a coop? You can buy a shed kit or look for someone selling a used shed and have it moved by a shed builder. Then you can integrate your hens with your pullets and have one flock instead of two with two coops.

I’ve thought of that but I am afraid the older hens will really bully the pullets. I’d like too but just worried about that.

They won't bully them for long unless you have space constraints. Hence, building a large enough coop for a single flock.
My flock currently consists of 25 birds ranging in age from 5.5 weeks to 4.5 years with multiple ages in between. Everyone gets along just fine.
 
I may
