I've got a sweet Golden Comet, Abracadabra (named by my toddler, go figure!), who miraculously survived a raccoon attack. She got the go ahead from our amazing vet (staples for a chicken? I had no idea!) to be outside free ranging again but after being inside recovering for 2 weeks the rest of the flock sees her as a newcomer and aren't being very nice, to say the least. I worry extra about her since she will never be 100% and has a slow/gimpy leg and can't get away from the bigger girls like a totally healthy hen could. And yet keeping her isolated longer doesn't seem like a good idea either...any chicken lovers out there have some advice on how to best handle this kind of situation? Poor Abby has already been through so much with this ordeal ;(
