No recipes. I can't give you what I would do for her crop problem.

I got my hens at the same time 2 years ago. There was never any pecking and didn't seem to be a real pecking order.Now I have one that has been getting picked on. She was sick and in the house for a few weeks this winter, She also suffered frostbite and lost some toes. When we put her back we realized that she was not being allowed to roost . I took down the preferred roost and left up one that was longer and accommodated all 6 of them. I thought that would solve the problem. I noticed her by herself a lot so I put her in a cage thinking her toes were still sore even though they seem healed. She wasn't eating and I noticed that she seemed to vomit when I held her. I did a internet search and concluded that her crop was prob impacted. I emptied it several times and gave her olive oil and massages! By the next day she seemed good. I had to be away for a night but when I got back she seems totally OK! BUT when I put her back with the flock she was attacked! I put her in the main part of the barn with one other less aggressive hen. This hen still went after her but not too bad. Is there a way to get her back in the flock? If not what should I do? (no recipes please!)
Thank you!
