    How long are uncollected eggs good?

    Free range poop control

    We live on 5 1/2 acres. About 3 of it is hilly and wooden so they don't go there a lot, but some. The rest is fair game.

    Free range poop control

    There is plenty of room. They just want handouts from my kitchen. I'm hoping they will forget if I stop throwing scraps out from the kitchen and only scrap them in their coop.

    Free range poop control

    My first set if birds started in our kitchen. They were transported in and out for a while until it was warm enough. Our new ones never lived in our house. The original birds peck the sliding door when they are hungry, eat the dog food on the porch and make a nasty mess all over the porch and...

    Is there any way to ensure or encourage them to lay in the coop? It is open during the day so that she could lay in there anytime.

    First Egg Countdown!!

    We got out first eggs this past week! She's laid three I'm three days. But on day two, when it got to be noon and no egg, we let them out. She immediately laid it on my front porch on a shelf. Do they lay pretty consistently time of day wise?

    iPhone upload.....aaaaaagh!!!

    I'm using an iPhone 4S. iOS 6.1.3. Verizon 3G. No apps that should limit ads/scripts. The comment box has the photo icon. Will let me walk through the whole thing. Shows that's it's uploading. Then when it's done, no picture. Again, I can take a screen shot, but can't upload it....

    2 males 1 female?

    Sourland, that's what I wondered. I'd read about 2 females and one male, but not the opposite. I didn't know if, as they got older, it would be an issue.

    2 males 1 female?

    I have 3 Guinea fowl. I just heard one making the female call for the first time this week. (Just a couple months old) I hear one making the female call while the other 2 chatter. Is it safe to presume only one is female then? If so, should I find another girl for the male? Or keep the three...
