Good Morning -
Back in June one of my hens became very sick. Low and behold - she made it back from the brink. I slowly introduced her back to the flock and in late August I put her with them full time. Now from June to then - I took exceptional one-on-one care of her. Now that she is back in the flock - what I notice is she is a "loner". Sometimes she doesn't come out of the coop. Sometimes she is off in a corner. Every now and again - I see the other hens pick on her. Not all of them - just the ones that came with her when I got her originally. I feel so badly for her that I take her out during the day and she eats and drinks like crazy. I'm worried she will starve or dehydrate if I don't take her out. Advice?
