I can't tell you all how much I appreciate the tips and advice. And my family and I are definitely willing to put forth whatever effort necessary to make it work. He's not doing it all the time yet and still manages to do well some days, just not every day which is why I want to nip it in the...
Thanks! We think so too! :) Though I wouldn't have any idea where to start to show him, lol. Flogging is a synonym for whip and thrash, commonly used referring to when a rooster (essentially) attacks.
This is 'Remi', (Short for Remington) He is about a year old and I'm not sure what breed he is other than to say he is a Bantam. (If anyone has any guesses, I'd be delighted to hear them as well as advice on the issue as hand here, lol. ) My daughters and I have raised him from a chick and love...

Thanks for the reply, we have found her nest, it was on our property after all, just hidden in tall grass. I guess we're going to incubate the eggs and see what hatches.
I have three guineas, one male and two hens. They are free range every day and by training, I have them cooped every night. Generally, I find the hens nests on the property (5 acres) and incubate the eggs. However, one of my hens has made a nest just off my property and I can't find it. I...
