    Chicken hatched Guinea Eggs (ANOTHER UPDATE & PICS-POST #36)

    WOW you have soooo many! Mine still want to sleep in the dog crate and they are around a week older than yours. I even tried putting them on a branch up higher in the pen. They prefer the ground. Hope they get over this. They have adopted a new mommy. I put the lone White EE chick in with them...

    Took me a while but I got some new pics of the babies and their adopted mommy. She is still plenty rough. I think next time I will use a Silkie hen.

    Chicken hatched Guinea Eggs (ANOTHER UPDATE & PICS-POST #36)

    OK I gave them back to the hen after I built them a new pen, Fully enclosed about 8ft X 3ft with a dog crate to sleep in. Temporary fix until I can put them in a bigger pen. Probably swap them and my Tom out since he has a big covered pen all to himself. He can move to the smaller pen and be...

    Chicken hatched Guinea Eggs (ANOTHER UPDATE & PICS-POST #36)

    I took them away and put them in a brooder. She is just too vigerous in her scratching. She killed one in her stamping, digging, frenzy, of hunting for food. They are just not bright enough to jump in and out while she scratches. I watched her step on three of them and just kick them to the back...

    Chicken hatched Guinea Eggs (ANOTHER UPDATE & PICS-POST #36)

    OH and my hen thinks they are wonderful...doesnt seem to have noticed they are different. They are MUCH more active than the chick...They pop in and out and hop around while the chick is sleepy. I will probably remove the chick to a group of similar aged chicks and leave the hen with just guineas.

    Chicken hatched Guinea Eggs (ANOTHER UPDATE & PICS-POST #36)

    Thanks, I too was looking for this info. My Bator quit on me during the tornados last week so I stuck my guinea eggs under a broody American Game hen. I wasnt sure if she could raise them or if I needed to take them away and do it myself. They should hatch on the 13th along with three chicken eggs.
