Glad to hear he is still doing "ok" anyway...
as you saw from my avatar, I am just above you
in Virginia,about 10 miles from NC border and Mt.Airy....
hang in there...
just went over the posts and missed before the 'green' poop...
do as Peeps says...worm both of them now...it may not be gape worms
but seems like worms for sure. I would continue the antibiotics but
would worm them both as soon as you can. Wouldn't even try swabbing
his throat again for...
think I would try to swab just a bit further into his throat...don't know how
far back you did before but a bit more may show something different.
by chance is his poop green? or smelly? like a sulphur smell?
glad still on antibiotic....you should probably mix up a new batch
and replace...
is he still on the Duramycin-10 ?
found this website and thought you could look and see if anything is close to his poop...?

this site is on chicken poop but should be close
guess he could still have worms?? and since after swabbing his...
teeandtay, how's your guinea doing?
if it was/is worms guess I was really off the mark...
but I was thinking in the line of breathing,...illness
from infection not worms causing the problem...
let us know....
let's hope not too late....
if you have many water sources for them to drink from
empty them and put the duramycin mixture in all those
closest to him....(.and the others may benefit from it too.).
good luck! let us know how he's doing...
put some crumbled boiled eggs yolks for protein out for him and
maybe some where he has started sleeping.....I would put him
on the antibiotic too...
hopefully someone else will see this and rely soon...
I am sorry for your loss...
but to me a guinea not running around and making noise ARE signs of sickness...I would keep an eye on the rest of my flock for
any signs of anyone else being sick...but thats just me...
Peeps, you have any ideas?
if you have any other info it might help to post so someone might be able to help you...
has his poop changed?
is he eating and drinking?
is he roosting in his normal place?
is he penned, free ranger or penned and let out and goes up at night?
bout how old is he...
