Is she in pain, should I just put her down now.

Last Update: I got home from vacation a little worried since she went without pain medication all week. I got home and the basement was a mess! She's doing so good she was all over the basement. I spent 3 hours hosing down and disinfecting the basement. So I put her outside with the rest of the flock. The other hens inspected her but she kept her distance when they came close. She was scratching and pecking the ground like normal. When the sun went down she went inside the coop/shed with the rest of the flock. I kept an eye on her it took her two flight tries before she made it up to perch for the night. The two hens between her pecked at her... I stood there and flicked them when they made their attempts, after 2 or 3 flicks they gave up. So I think she's officially back in the flock assuming she doesn't get picked on by the other hens to bad.
