Leave her be she is obviously happy doing what shes doing, given time she may follow the other girls in & out of the coop. If you are concerned then you will have to keep phyisically putting her in & out of the coop till she catches on.

Thanks for the advice she has now started to go in and out of the coop herself, now the weather has got a little colder, I think she is a young hen as she has only just started laying. She was laying one hard and the next very soft but she has now got her act together.
Thanks for your help.
Regards
Diane :D
