I got 15 guinea keets when they were two days ins on April 11. 2 died early in the box. The other 13 were very healthy and growing. On June 6 we let a few loose and they stuck around the property, huddling on the outside of the crate next to the ones still in the crate. So the next day we let them all out. They hung around and explored for 3 days. The morning of June 10 we spotted one walking around with a wild turkey. But the other 12 were nowhere to be found. It's now June 14 and only the one guinea remains here. Although there's a lot of wooded area on our property we've searched thoroughly for them, or for signs of trauma. We've posted signs on the street and asked neighbors to contact us if they seem them. Nothing yet. I can't imagine they'd fall prey as a group while free ranging. Any hope they'll be back? This is our first attempt to raise them and it's very disappointing!
