Ok to let her back out with the others ??

[Alicat4244]

So last week when we opened the coop we realized one of the girls was severely bleeding from being pecked ... this was last Saturday . She is doing really good we separated her so they would leave her alone but now she has been alone for almost a week and physically she's ok but I think she's lonely . Think it would be ok to let her back out with the others??

Yes, use the "look don't touch" method.
Why was she being pecked so badly?

The only reason I know she got pecked was ... my husband and I overslept and they were in the coop to long. They free range but get put up at night with the nights being so cold we completely shut them in . That's the only thing we can think of . All has been well till that.

I agree with the look, but don’t touch plan (use a puppy crate or pen).
