Chicken help needed

Need some urgent advice. 3 new chooks settled in really well last wednesday so they've been in for 3 days and laying well. being a big softie, i was foolishly persuaded by wife and daughter to get another chook. We went to the local chook shop where i spoke to the bloke about adding another. he said that if i put a new one in, world wor 3 would break out. I explained that the 3 had only been there for 3 days and he said they should be ok then. So, thinking safety in numbers, i bought 2 more.....a light sussex and a brown jobbie whose name escapes me.
Anyway, world war 3 did ensue and the two newbies were picked on. I have now removed the 3 orginal chooks for a few hours to try to allow the newbies to get the feel of the run and to have some food. The original birds are in a large dog cage so no worries there either.
I put the chooks back in after 4 hours and again, the newcomers were forced onto the roof of the chook house.
I need your thoughts and advice on this. What would you do ? how long would you leave them etc etc Any advice is appreciated
