    I took my Golden Laced Polish hen out of the run because somebody pecked her head and made a large hole. I brought her into the barn and trimmed back her "pouf". I think the problem was she couldn't see and somebody pecked her. It is nice and dry now. I even brought home 2 Light Sussex for company. They get along well now. When can I put these 3 girls back in with my flock? Its always easier to catch them in the evening and I could put them into the coop then. Any suggestions?[​IMG]

    Has your polish healed - there is no open "wound" to pick at? If yes, then I would put them back with the flock.
