Will my big isa browns kill my 10 week old silkie because I put her in and they were pulling her feathers (I took her out of course)

Have the older hens ever seen the silkie before today? How many ISA Browns do you have? How much space do they have? Are they're places for the silkie to hide from the ISA Browns?
If not It’s fine I’m ordering a new coop I’ll keep her/him in there with some friends
 
Throwing birds together without introducing them first often goes poorly, especially with a bird that's much younger and smaller. In addition, adding a single bird is the most difficult form of integration. You need to give them at least a few weeks to see, but not touch, each other, before attempting to put them together - and hiding spaces, multiple feeders and waterers, are a must.
