    Guinea Fowl scrunched neck

    I have one adult guinea fowl that keeps his neck scrunched up. It isn't that cold. I don't know why he is doing it. It doesn't seem normal. Can anyone tell me what might be causing that? Thank you.

    Guinea Wing

    Thank you. I still have so much to learn about taking care of my guineas. I want to do it right, but no one where i live has them so I don't really have anyone to consult with. I appreciate your imput.

    Guinea Wing

    Thank you. I really think the wing is there, but maybe all the bottom feathers gone. She is acting okay, but not sure she can fly. I am keeping her separated, but don't know how long I should. Do you know if the blood smell would be done in about 3 days so she could be let out with the...

    Guinea Wing

    Well the auto correct on my phone changed my words. I meant to say she got trapped, and beat herself up trying to get free.

    Guinea Wing

    My guinea hen was in an unfortunate accident and I am afraid her left wing was torn off. Does anyone know if a wing can grow back? I'm not sure if it is the whole wing or part of it? Also, is their danger letting her be with the others in the flock, or will they peck and ostracize her as...

    guinea keets two weeks old

    So many say heat lamps might cause fire. How do you prevent that? Is it a wattage on the bulb?

    HElp! The weatherman is predicting a low of 9 degrees tomorrow night. I have 7 adult guineas. One is a hen with 11 keets that are just two weeks old tomorrow. I can close the door on my coop. I am wondering if I should put a heat lamp on the ceiling in my coop? The hen has been keeping...

    The boys and girls

    Thank you. I do free range my flock during the day, and pen them up at night. Everyone has gotten along, but now I am in this new dilemma with no girls. Thank you for your information.

    The boys and girls

    Thank you so much for your reply. I have a place that i can buy grown female guineas. Do you think that would work? I do not have a lot of experience with this. When I did try incubating eggs I did not have much success, and had difficulty getting the two groups to mix eventually.

    The boys and girls

    I somehow ended up with 8 male guineas. I had no eggs last year. I want to add females to my flock but don't know how many I need to get to make everyone happy? I will need to get grown females, are there suggestions about introducing them to their new home?

    Feathers picked out on back of guinea

    I have a guinea (I think a hen) that was setting on eggs in a nest outdoors. I think a skunk came and ate her eggs. Since that time I have noticed that she has a bare spot on her back. The feathers are gone in about a three inch circle. I don't know how to tell if this guinea has a disease...
