    Guinea keet with broken toe?!

    Now I am wondering if it’s in his elbow/knee. There is some swelling there. He hops around and turns his entire foot inward to help him. He still gets around with everyone and eats and drinks but he looks in pain and it’s been really bothering me. Could it have anything to do with his splayed leg?

    Guinea keet with broken toe?!

    After the transfer from the brooder to the coop, one of my guinea keets seems to have injured his foot. I wasn’t home when they moved them and my mum said that maybe she wasn’t as gentle as she could have been. :barnie He is my favourite keet (of course) and has already worked through a splayed...

    Guinea keet colours? (My first hatch!)

    Thank you for your help! Are lavenders fully dotted? Maybe my “coral blue” is a lavender? He’s always seemed darker to me and more blue than a typical lavender but maybe I will have to have a closer look tomorrow and see if he’s fully dotted. I need to learn more about different colours. Do...

    Guinea keet colours? (My first hatch!)

    After incubating for my first time, I’m proud to say that ALL OF THEM HATCHED! And they are all doing so well! I’m still in shock that beginner me was able to do it. Thank you Bob (R2elk) for helping me so much! Now I’m curious to know what colours they are! Especially with the darker ones. I...

    Guinea fowl hatch date?!

    All 8 have hatched and seem to be doing well! I am shocked that they all did and are very thankful to all your help so these babies were able to make it. Thank you!

    His leg is doing much better! He is getting around easily and seems happy... and to add to the exciting news, the last egg has externally pipped!

    Thank you! I’ll try that. What bedding do you suggest I put down?

    Guinea fowl hatch date?!

    Looks like you were right about the one with the cloudy eye. I tried getting some pictures. Let me know if I should get some more. He is with week old keets and I’m wondering if I should move him. They don’t pick on him though.

    Guinea fowl hatch date?!

    Thank you! Another question... one of the babies hatched weird and now seems unsteady on his feet. He still gets around but he doesn’t stand up completely and has to put his wings all the way out to walk. Should I put him back in the incubator? Or help him in some way? I’ve been giving him...

    Guinea fowl hatch date?!

    7 out of 8 have hatched and are doing well! The 8th hasn’t externally piped. I thought it had but under closer inspection it hasn’t. It was moving around yesterday and made noise but nothing today. Should I try and assist it? I was going to move the seven to the brooder today because they are...
