Re-Adding chickens to my flock

I'm hoping I can get some advice. Long story short, I have six, six month old pullets. Two silkies, two ameracanas and two orpingtons. One of the silkies got Wry neck and it took her a good few months to recover so she was isolated during that time. When I try to put her back in the flock I didn't have trouble with the other chickens, instead she got super super stressed out. I think from just not being around them for so long. So I made the decision to put her in the other silkie hen in a separate smaller coop inside my enclosure. She's calmed down over the past 3-4 weeks. She's been out there and it's kind of learned how to be a chicken again. My question is what is the best way for me to get these girls back in with a big flock without drama? Their coop and mini run is inside the enclosure that the other ones run around in so they see them and hear them everyday all day.
Thank you so much!
 
Open the door to the small coop and let them out to wander the run.
Pics might help here.
This is my little coop inside my enclosure that my silkies are in and you can see my big girls investigating it
