    guinea hen left for 4 weeks and came back tonight with keets!

    The wire we have around the outside has really tiny holes, much smaller then your average chicken wire :-) they are my mom's birds and their pen is in the horse pasture, so I take care of the horses/birds at night and she does in the morning. When i called to ask how they where this morning she...

    guinea hen left for 4 weeks and came back tonight with keets!

    Thanks...Mhmm maybe our white one is a male after all, I was doing research last night so I'll have to listen closely today, I thought they both made the "buck-wheat" sound, but maybe not. Should we let her keep raising them or should we take them(eck I can't imagine trying to get them from her...

    guinea hen left for 4 weeks and came back tonight with keets!

    So our spotted Guinea stopped coming home at night in the beginning of June(probably 4th or 5th ish) I saw her a few times since then but she was never around long, well tonight when I went to put them away (chickens are other Guinea) she was back and being particularly evil, hissing and...

    Guinea hen died a week and a half ago, now a chicken. Coincidence or something going around?

    On 5/28 one of our guinea hens didn't look right, I didn't see her as my mom fed them since I was at a horse show(normally she feeds AM and I feed PM) She was going away that week and warned me that she didn't look good and may be egg bound so she may not make it(we don't have any vets who will...

    20 chicks and 5 guinea keets, how to tell them apart?

    Ok, so according to the box we have 5 Ameraucana(which I guess are actually easter eggers), 5 dominique, 5 russian orloff and then 5 guinea keets. I now know which are the guinea's but aside from that I'm pretty clueless.

    20 chicks and 5 guinea keets, how to tell them apart?

    Thanks, I'll have to check to see if they were on the list of the ones she ordered. That breed sounds familar Thanks That's what I was thinking too but I wasn't sure. TSC told her that the guineas may become aggressive and pick on the chicks as they are growing. We're hoping since they are all...

    20 chicks and 5 guinea keets, how to tell them apart?

    Hello, My mom ordered a bunch of chicks from tractor supply back in April and they finally came in today(drove over to see them as soon as I could!) They were born on the 5th and they all came together with no way to identify them. The people at TSC told her the guineas may need to be separated...
