Wow, well, maybe she can have limited time with one of the roos next door.

It doesn't work that way. She needs to live with a flock to be truly happy. Not just get visits from time to time.
In the beginning it will be stressful for her as she will have to integrate with the new birds but her instincts tell her, she needs to be with them.

Ditto to what @DobieLover said.

Another reason to keep your own flock is to prevent your girl from coming in contact with other birds that may have illnesses or pests that could be passed on to her.
