    Quail vs Guinea Fowl

    ...them and wouldn't mind the noise whatsoever. I take it they are good warning for other birds such as chickens and ducks as we had some idiots dog kill one of my hens. thankfully the only tragedy thus far *touch wood* Are they similar to peacocks in the calls area as I like the peacock noises
