Thank you for the welcome 
and here is a slight update from last night.
They have been eating none stop, and pooping regularly. The poo looks slightly different already still abnormal but less tacky tar. they still haven’t checked out the other half of the coop, but later today I’ll collect them up and move them, or coax them with something like grubs. They still stink bad, but you can’t smell it unless you’re on their level. I’ll attach a few photos. (I reached out to the person I got them from, and he said he will collect a few more and bring them to me but can’t promise if their hens or roosters) he agreed with my overcrowding comment, and he could use more space for the birds he plans to keep. I think taking more would help the birds he is keeping and I still have room for six more with my current set up. (I’d only want three or four with the set up I have though) I plan on building something larger down the road.

So sorry about your new flock, good luck with them!
