How do I stop this!

Quarantine is an exercise to safeguard one's livestock from potential pathogens. It is from a 17th century Italian term meaning 40. That's how long ships had to wait at sea before being allowed into port before people could disembark. The idea is a 40 day separation as far as possible from other animals of the same species that could be infected by pathogens hidden by the new animals.
There are lots of posts here of people here who didn't quarantine their animals and subsequently infected their whole flock and lost most or all of them.

hmm when most of the time they leave her alone (grammar may be bad it’s 5:23 am) and there not sick but I try that
 
Unfortunately, you're learning the hard way that you cannot just dump a new bird into a flock and expect good results. :(

Get your new bird into a safe pet carrier or dog crate and read this information about integrating new chickens into the flock.

Hmm I guess I am maybe today I should go to petsmart/co and buy a small dog crate!
 
Well the just fly out idk what to do there fecne is about I’d say 2-3 feet tall?
Chickens can fly up to six feet.

On the other hand, if you want to stop them from getting under your building, dig a trench about two feet or so deep, then bury part of the chicken wire in that trench before securing the top part to the bottom of your structure in any way you see fit. You can also fill the trench back up with cement to secure the chicken wire at the bottom instead of filling it back up with dirt.
