So, I have been letting Matilda out with the other hens daily for several hours in end. I have not noticed much bullying from any of the girls. Matilda is still a little slow but is able to keep up with the rest of the flock when running through the yard. She is eating on her own again and I think drinking too. I left her out today in supervised for about three hours. Took the kids to the pool. When I returned I went out to find Matilda. She apparently followed the rest of the girls into their coop and was roosting with them. She is still in need of daily cleansings to her head. But the scabbing and irritation from scratching is looking better everyday. I have been using Vetericyn which is supposed to be the best antibacterial cleansing. I chose not to remove her, just to see if she is ready to be back with them. I am hoping this is her return time, she seems so happy. Any thoughts or opinions on this? Thanks
