Help with young pullet

[Katieh227]

Hi. I had a broody hen and about 10 weeks ago we stuck two chicks under. The whole experience was wonderful. One of the two turned out to be a rooster. We rehomed him yesterday.
The two were very close. While the rest of my flock (5 hens including the mama) accepted them, they are not friendly and the two young chicks kept mostly to themselves. Now that the girl is alone, I’m wondering if the other five will be friendlier? Any thoughts? I hate seeing her by herself all the time.

She will be fine. I also have a single chick growing up in an established flock. She gives way to the oldies, that is her position now, but they don't harass her. Eventually she will get bigger, and fit right in. It is bothering you more than her.

She should grow a little closer to the older birds once she begins laying.
