@Elemes In my experience it is best to keep the lone chick lone until it is almost grown. I have then been able to put the grown up loner in with the group, and the rooster was happy to have another girl around and protected her from the other hens. Until then, I kept the lone chick in the house, and occasionally outside when I could supervise.
A good rooster may be difficult to find. He must put the welfare of the hens first. I'll post more on that later.
