    Guinea Fowl eggs hatched..

    mmmm, do you have any chickens? If so perhaps one of them will take over the mothering, especially if you have a clucky chicken....perhaps for some reason your guinea has given up on the eggs that she has left, perhaps they are not viable? Can you candle them, or put them under a broody chicken...

    Sorry to intrude on the guinea fowl forum...

    Hi, I sadly lost one of my Guineas recently I had 2 adult ones that had been together from day one, a male and a female and when my male was killed I was devastated as was my female guinea and sure she had ducks and chickens to hang out with but its not the same, she needed one of her own, so...

    Is this a problem that can even be solved? Bold ducks,,,,

    Anything is worth a try? My ducks don't perch, so I am not sure. I have Muscovy's 12 of them and not one perches, however they like to climb on the hay bales (sometimes) and not to high just one or two bales, but as mentioned not too often. I don't think you would have to have your porch blocked...

    angel wing?

    Do the worst wing first, best to try and fix, as it is disfiguring to the bird and they get it caught on things, knocked easily etc etc, even if you do one side and there is huge improvement do the other and then go back and repeat once more...there is no harm done, but as with mine I totally...

    Is this a problem that can even be solved? Bold ducks,,,,

    I would say try and make a screen or block off that area for a while, it might not need to be an indefinite thing, just re focus them and get them to go elsewhere where they are happy...They are obviously happy on your porch :) Don't get rid of them because of that, you will be able to re train...
