Just wondering a few ideas of how to get my girls to play nice. My oldest hen RIR 2.5 yrs old is very lethargic, uninterested in food and is getting full fledged attacked by two almost 1yr old Black Stars. When I open the run to put food in they will run her into the coop and in a corner, one of them has come after me more and more frequently too. This morning in hopes to keep boost Red's energy I put the two snots in an extra coop. Red has a friend with the Delaware so she is not a lone but I would like to see her perk up. Any thought of how long I should keep them separate or recommendations to perk up my sweet Red? Any ideas would be helpful.
 
Sounds more like she's ill or not feeling well, so I would try to see if there's a reason. Other birds will attack a sick flock mates.
 
How long have these bird been living together and how much space do they have(feet by feet) in coop and run?
