How long to quarantine?

[doubleatraining]

Just what the title says. I got 3 new hens yesterday and have them separate in the QT pen. So how long are they banished? I was thinking a week.....

I would go for about two weeks. Some conditions can hide out for a little bit.

Thirty days is usually recommended. Sometimes it takes certain diseases to rear their ugly heads that long incubation timewise It's up to you though.
