    Day 26 first keet is out.. He is taking a while to stand.. How long will he/she take to dry up..? When should I take him out of the incubator? What do I feed him when he is out of the incubator.?.Other eggs are shaking but no piping yet...? It's was all amazing.. We had a crowd of people...

    Peahens egg...Fertilized or not?

    Thanks again.. My guinea just seem to be laying in the coop nonstop.. But not sitting on them.. So I have opted to incubate them.. Will wait for the second peahen egg then incubate one of them.. But sure things will be productive next year.. Great advice!

    Peahens egg...Fertilized or not?

    Thanks for the advice, I was thinking of doing the same.. The remaining eggs she will lay after I am done taking away one to incubate.. What should I do? Let her sit on it? Let her lay a clutch then when she is done take it away? I don't want to do daily removal because I don't want to her keep...

    Stopping monkeys from eating poultry feed and eggs

    Monkeys are smart.. So most methods work for a while but eventually they figure a way around it.. What I have used that seems fool proof is dry ground up chilli. - for feed just mix in feed.. It's also good for poultry. - for eggs apply non toxic oil on eggs u don't mind losing and roll in dry...
