How efficient are the Guineas at hunting and eating moles? Also, do they seek out mice and rats, or eat opportunistically?

I would recommend Ropa Complete: http://www.ropastore.com/global/ropapoultry It has oregano oil plus other good stuff. I just cured two weak hens (one was laying on its side) with runny stools by giving the higher recommended dose. It's expensive for routine maintenance, but works well for...

Got my first egg from this summer's chicks! My very small 28 week old EE gave me the cutest egg. I love to have a few with small eggs. Camera enhanced color (see quarter), but it is really pretty mint green.

Anyone know what happened to gryeyes? Her last post was back in august right about the time there was a big fire in her area of Somerset, CA (Sand Fire). I sent her a PM and never heard back. She was so consistent on the forum, so I'm worried about the silence.

Congratulations! How old is your hen? I have a 28 week old and still waiting.

Will they start to lay in the winter without lights?

My BA is 27 weeks this week, and her comb is bright red. Will she lay this winter or wait till spring?

Ahh makes sense now AkChris... Gorgeous egg colors lucky you! Thank you for the reply.

That is the cutest picture ever!
