    PTSD? Separation Anxiety?

    Well I didn't quite toss her into the coop, but I didn't integrate her slowly through 'quarantine'. I haven't done that previously and there's never been a problem. However, this is a new challenge so I've sectioned off an area in the run where she can happily forage on her own. She's now...
