Help wasn’t able to quarantine !

[Keiki]

Help! I got 2 new chickens and had them in a crate I put them next to my car (drive way) and went in the house to get something. My other 3 girls are free range and never come to my drive way we have a 4ft fence . I came back and they where standing around the crate close sticking heads in. Now I have not been able to properly quarantine them .. I’m scared for my old girls. Has anyone gone through something like this and everything endend up being fine . The new chickens where bullied chickens so it’s hard to see how healthy they actually are . I feel so dumb I need some advice! Or stories that ended up okay.

Welcome to BYC.
My husband once bought me a rooster and two pullets for a surprise birthday present. And surprise. He put them in with my girls while I was at work. Fortunately, they were healthy.

Official welcome to BYC!

I have had chickens integrated into my flock without being properly quarantined first. Time will tell what happens. Hopefully they're all healthy.
