I am taking in 2 hens from a neighbor that lives a mile away. Her hens are well and live so close. Do I really have to quarantine them first? I mean I plan on integrating them slowly and trying to make the additions as seemless as possible. And don't get me wrong, we would all cry our eyes out if our girls got sick. But I am not set up to quarantine. It would cost us to pull it off. And frankly it would be a deal breaker. Budget it too tight. Should I just tell her to find someone else? She is moving and really wants a good home. She knows how much we LOVE our girls and is excited to have hers get a good home. But...I can't build a whole coop to quarantine. Advice?
