No. Quarantine of a bird applies to bringing home a bird or
birds to a house that already has established pet birds
living there. The new birds must be kept away from the
established birds for about 30 days if the health of the new
birds isn't known. Basically, quarantine is to protect other
birds from infection. ----Dave
