Try some bate at night where you've seen her. Chickens sit wherever they are when it gets dark out so go out with a flashlight and a net. Look at some game cam footage so you get an idea of where she hangs out at night and if she likes the bait. I don't know if a havahart trap will work. But check her out before mixing her with your flock. Best of luck keep us updated.

so I live where there are feral chickens and I found out where they roost and I got a ladder and when it was getting dark I went and located them in the tree and then put the ladder and grabbed one leg to make sure they don't get away then got them out of the tree
