    Guinea Fowl acting strange... may be sick? Help!

    I noticed a disturbance in the normal pattern of the coop about a week or two ago. One of the hens began standing in the corner of the coop facing the house and squawking every morning at sunrise. Very unusual, but now I'm thinking she may have been trying to alert us to another issue. I...

    feeder/waterer changes

    Good luck with that!! This past winter, I tried to change out the watering container to a heated enclosed one with little push tabs on the sides because going out every morning and chiseling the ice out of the trough of their existing one was not fun. Only one had enough sense to walk over and...

    Tons of Eggs, No keets =\ HELP!

    I have not touched them. The first batch of egg she had, I interfered and I believe caused her to abandon the nest, so this time, I'm hands off, letting her do her thing, but now it's getting quite ridiculous. I don't know what I'm supposed to do, but I can tell you one thing, I'm kicking...

    Tons of Eggs, No keets =\ HELP!

    I've read that if you disturb the nest too much, they will abandon it ... which is why there are so many eggs. I was afraid that I'd disturbed her first nest too much and perhaps that may be the reason she abandoned it. I have to say one thing about her... she moves those eggs around a lot...

    Tons of Eggs, No keets =\ HELP!

    In early spring, the guineas laid about 26-28 eggs and mama sat on them for almost three straight weeks. Then she got up and started moving around and after a week, I suspected she abandoned her nest and collected and discarded all of the eggs. She started up again and now we have...

    Abandoned nest...now what?

    My guinea hen sat on her nest of 36 eggs for three and a half weeks wthout moving off of them, then all of a sudden, with just a few days left to go, I saw her outside the coop. That evening, she was on the roost with the others, so I checked on the eggs. None hatched. After four days of her...
