Reintroducing chick after recovery

[Chick jokes]

I have 8 BO chicks. They are 5.5 weeks old now. One was sick about a week and a half ago. I separated it. She is now doing great. The other chicks are now outside and I want to reintroduce her. Should I wait longer? I'm also worried about bullying. THANKS!

put her in dog kennel if you have on, or a small fenced area so they can see each other but not get 2 close. also putting her in on the perch at night seems to work also. They seem to think anyone they wake up with is friend

As they are all young, I think there won't be too much confrontation, none of them are laying. But a single bird to a group is never a real good idea. I would put a bird in with her for a while, then release the pair.

She adapted just fine. I just put her in there to see how it would go. No issues thanks so much for the input!
