Reintegration Not Working, Advice Appreciated!

[scjcb37]

Hello all, I have been off line for quite some time. My girls are 2 years now and the loves of my life! I am back on line because this group proved to be priceless to me . One of my girls (RIR) went through a pretty good molt, not total, but enough. My point and where I am in need of advice is, my EE saw her weakness and pecked her something awful overnight . I will attempt to attach pics. She has been in the quarentine pen and is fully recovering . Heres the Buttt...my EE makes a beeline for her any time I try and let them all out together, and now others are puffing up at her. Because she was hurt so bad, I am hesitant to 'let them work it out '. Any advice would be highlyappreciated...

Healing nicely...

Maybe isolate the EE for a bit to give her some time to cool down while you reintroduce the other.

Not sure what this means.
She may have had a full molt, but just not hard molt where seemingly all feathers drop out all at once.

Did this happen last fall?
(I am assuming you live in the northern hemisphere but maybe not)

Knowing more about:
-your flock size(numbers, ages, genders),
-your coop(size in feet by feet with pics),
-and what and how exactly you are feeding,
might offer clues to if there is a solvable problem.
