Hi all, looking to add some ducks to our family of chickens and guineas so we can diversify our egg supply. Ideally Khaki Campbells or some other prolific layers. Does anyone have any ducks or ducklings they'd be open to moving to a new home? Best, Luke

After last night's attack on our flock by what seems to be a bear, we're severely depleted! Lost 11 of our 16 birds, all of which were layers... We now have two male guineas, a cockerel, one bantam hen and an ISA brown hen. Is there anyone in the area that would be interested in parting with...

After losing a chicken a day to a fox/foxes when free ranging, we thought we had the problem sorted by only letting them out for 30 minutes before sunset. Between being locked up last night and checking this morning, something visited the coop and tore a big hole in the 1/4" hardware cloth...

Just had a fox strike for the third time. First time, lost a bantam a couple of weeks ago. Two days ago, we lost our lame guinea fowl and today, an ISA brown. Our birds free range during the day and are safely locked up at night. Last two times, I heard a commotion and saw the fox, presumably...

Hoping that someone could help with diagnosing a guinea fowl with a big swelling on its foot. This guinea injured its left leg over a month ago. After a couple of weeks of sitting without moving, it slowly started being more mobile again, though not running with its guinea friends. It's now...

Hi there, new to the forum and with a new flock as well. After about a 25 year hiatus, I have 14 chickens and five guineas, just moved outside into their new house. Found this site looking for advice on a seemingly injured guinea, and am sure that I'll find lots of other useful information as well!
