    Doing a test run of the new solar electric fence...

    That sounds amazing! I want to do the same thing, minus the touching the wire and having it that big of an area! Can you tell me just which things you bought? I am having a terrible time finding out just what to get. I only want a small area, like around my chicken house and coop so I don't want...

    Electric Fence

    I need help deciding what kind of electric fence to install. I have my coops pretty well predator proof, except I have one Border Collie that likes to play with my chickens! She doesn't bother the large chickens, nor the guineas, it's just the smaller half grown chickens and the babies. She...

    Fertile Easter egger eggs

    I have hatched at least a couple light blue eggs and as they all hatched in the same incubator, I am not sure which ones are the Eggers! The eggs I hatched were from an Amish market and about 10 altogether were in the hatcher. Now I had 3 blue ones, and 2 of these shells were ones that hatched...

    breeding guinea fowl that are not free range

    Wondering now if I should have just let them roam free and roost in the trees? For a while I let half of them out one day and penned those....let the other half out the next day...alternately. At one time one half roosted in a tree....wish now I had let them all out to roost in the trees!

    breeding guinea fowl that are not free range

    Thanks for all the help y'all gave! Sadly to say, I am now thinking I did the wrong thing keeping my guineas in the enclosure. In the back, something scratched under the fence and slaughtered all my 7 guineas...just ate parts of them...and only left one little girl that was so sad the next...

    Only one keet hatched from hatcher!

    She is eating and drinking like a little piglet! I think she's going to be fine! Hope y'all can see this video! And thanks for the help! I still think I will find some more keets at the "Feed Store" or Tractor Supply just so she isn't alone! https://gyazo.com/b440faabad79d6120234b51dfacd9f0d

    Only one keet hatched from hatcher!

    Help! I set a batch of guinea eggs and only one of them hatched! Now I have this one little fellow and am trying to get her to eat...slow going for sure! I wonder what is the best way to feed her and get her to drink...she is doing it but I'm not sure she's getting enough. I have ground up the...

    breeding guinea fowl that are not free range

    I am raising 10 guineas in a pen...partially covered with roost poles and it's about 50x16 in two sections with a small space in the middle that they can go from one section to another. (25x10 one section, and 25x6 the other). I've raised these from keets born last spring and so far I've fed...

    Turning eggs during lockdown

    Hi again y'all! Well, that baby didn't make it...it was too early and I didn't mess with it. It wasn't alive that morning...but I had those 3....let them stay in there around 24 hours and Sunday morning 5 or 6 more were barely pipped. The babies were peeping too! <3 All that day it was fine but...
