This mallard duckling was hatched by my French Marans hen Natalie and was approx 3 days old♥

Yes, all adults are males for sure! Its pretty exciting to hear the females calling now! The world is right and all are flocked perfectly! Thanks for your comment!

Hey Elk! Thank you! I our grown boys stuck around for 3 days with our littles, there are multiple females. I let them all out on the fourth morning and they have been right as rain ever since! They flock together perfectly and they travel well, and spend more time on our property! Absolutely...

We have 7 grown guinea males that have been doing bug duty on our property(and the neighbors) for 7 months now. I purchased 10, 10 week old keets last week as Last ditch effort to keep the "boys" on our property more. Our boys have been staying close to the keets, as I know there are females in...

You are awesome Elk! Thanks for the rescue!

That sounds good. Hang on lady guinea!

Hey Kasey, I don't have an answer for you unfortunately, hopefully the elk guy will see and comment, he is very helpful with guinea questions. We have 9 adult males and one of them is missing a foot, apparently tried to get out a window of his previous coop. His name is "Lucky", as he does...

Welcome to the flock!

Ours will be hardware cloth, we just shopped around for the best deal.

Would take him if you were in Kansas

Planning to add more this fall and balance the Guinea scale. Got only males to start for ticks specifically.

Welcome!

We have 10 guineas and 21 chickens, at the moment the guineas are on week 1 of 3 for acclimating to our new home. Our guineas are all males and as you can see are penned right next to the chickens. Thus far, I have seen no kerfuffles between the two, but they have not been let out to forage yet...

Guineas are a flock bird, I would imagine that he is depressed with no other guineas around. I was told to start with no less than 6 guineas at a time, more than that is better. Find him a guinea buddy would be my suggestion. good luck, hope he perks up!

Welcome homesteaders! Dig yout style!
