I have resently introduced 3 new chickens to my remaining buff orpington (two of them died earlier

) But any ways, we kept them seperate for about a week, then put them together. I wasn't expecting them to be friends and get along, but they're runing up two each other and pecking real hard, but no blood. Now, the pecking isn't as intense but they're blocking my buff from food and water. I've heard they do this fairly often but how long will this kind of thing last? I sneak in some food and water for her about twice a day but was wondering, if I wasn't, would they starve and dehidrate her to death?
