    Efowl.com BEWARE!

    I requested an estimated ship date on some guineas I wanted. They put it as about three weeks from my order. I promptly ordered them about 12 hours after their reply. They then send me a ship date of six weeks later. I inquired about the three week estimate and they told me they had given me...

    Anyone want to go halfs on a guinea order? (CT, W.Mass, Hudson Valley area)

    Hey all. So last year I was living in Texas and was able to guinea keets now. After moving back the northeast last fall I've discovered I don't have a chance of finding them around here until at least may. I have a tick infestation on my property that Satan himself would run from and I want...

    Best breed to free range for tick control.

    Thanks for the reply. Perhaps I will stick with guineas. How do they do living with your chickens? Maybe I'll get a mix like you have.

    Best breed to free range for tick control.

    Hi All I'm new to the forum and the world of chickens. I live out in the woods on 10 acres but I don't really have many neighbors just lots of woods. My yard is probably 2 acres cleared and up behind me are a couple big fields. The ticks are just relentless here. My poor dog has 10-15 on him...
