interesting!! what day you usually hatch on?I find the guinea eggs SO s--l--o--w to develop.
I've missed the entire conversation about guinea eggs...so I don't know what's been said or your set up...lol.
My female guinea wasn't fertile while she was with the 3 males we had. As soon as I had tryouts for which male got to stay with her as a pair and separated them from the other two, she became fertile. Every egg laid with the 3 males was clear...lol.
She picked her mate. Thank fully her pick was the most easy going, least problem causing male...
She liked the aggressive male the least of all and wouldn't stay around him. So funny!!
I'm hoping if the broodies raise these keets...the keets won't be so hard on the chickens.
I had a pair of guineas when I was about 10 that raised a brood. Other than that I have 0 experience other than what I'm learning now.
WELCOME OVER!!Wow, I should have gotten to a computer waaaay earlier! I knew I had to get here earlier...
I'm in! I'm in!!
WELCOME!!!!
sucha cute image with all the feet!!!!!Hi everyone! CUTEST pictures!! Keep them coming!!!
Here are some of my last hatch. I had to move the D'Uccle chicks since they are so tiny, they were being trampled by the regular size chicks. We're down to 20 out of 22. This is a temporary home until I get something bigger set up for them.
And here are the Silkies and yellow something that were hatched 10 days ago. Also a couple of the BCMs that hatched a few days ago.
Here's another one with the above chicks, but one of my Polish chicks is hanging out at the bottom
This one is blurry, but the rest of the trampling herd is under the heat plate. Polish are front and center....

Does it have to be of your own birds? Cause my chickens are still in the (incubator)!, but my neighbor's guinea fowl are in our yard all the time!
