More than likely, they have already been exposed to whatever she has. The testing might give you an idea of what to vaccinate new chicks for, since vaccines are for MG, bronchitis, and I'm not sure that you can easily buy one for coryza. Your state vet or local extension agent should be able to...

Actually most respiratory diseases including coryza and others are chronic diseases that are never cured. The symptoms may improve, but the disease can come back whenever the chicken is stressed, say during a molt or during the cold winter. They also remain carriers for life, even when not...
