    Dry Hatching Guinea Fowl

    I added some water, and got it up to 52% . I don't want to raise it to quickly, so it doesn't shock or drown them. No pips, just peeping. When I see the first pip, should I raise it a little more?

    Okay. They're in lockdown now. It's day 25. Humidity is at 30%. It will raise naturally as they hatch, right?

    Dry Hatching Guinea Fowl

    I need some advice from anyone using the dry hatch method for guinea fowl. The eggs go into lockdown tomorrow, and I am confused as to how to go about that.

    What the Sudden Death of My Hen Taught Me....

    My Buff Orpington, Rose was the most beautiful hen I've ever owned. Her rich yellow feathers shone so beautifully in the sun, and she had the sweetest disposition. When I sat outside with my flock, she would either and jump in my lap, or stretch her neck over my knee, waiting to be stroked. I...

    We got our guinea fowl in September, and it's April now, so they're about 7 months old. The females are starting to lay eggs, every day. Are they fertilized?
