Dan...welcome to the Easy...yes, you did good...you may also want to put some antibiotic savue on the wound. MOST OF ALL...you want to put this little girl by herself, until she heals up, other wise, they will continue to pick on her and may even end up kill her. You will want to continue to dress the wound or a couple of days until it show's signs of healing. I would wait until she is completed healed before putting her back with the other girls....Your introduction approach was very good...what you also may want to do is after being in the cage, in the pen, you may want to let them free range together and watch. Do this for a couple of days, then intro her back to the group in the night when all are sleeping....Best of Luck....Scooter
