Does anyone else have a guinea that does this? I know its Juju the house guinea- she just pops out an egg wherever she is at the time. The other guinea hens have got the main nest going but I have found single eggs under the peach tree, in a dust bath area, by the house, and two on the front...
Finally Juju the house guinea has been accepted into the older flock of guineas, and she has two boyfriends. One of her boyfriends is my best male Biscuit, the other is a pied male. Its so funny to watch they take turns sharing and bringing bugs to her. And since she was the only guinea that...
Is that time again for Guinea love fest? My guineas are chasing each other all over the yard, over the fences, up in the trees. They are doing guinea drive-bys on the cats laying out in the sun. The dog has to watch herself out in the yard or they will run her over and its not pretty since all...
Pictures of Juju, the former house guinea.
She must be an Alabama fan because she attacks my blue & orange tiger striped boots.
The older guineas won't accept her but she hangs out with my two chickens.
She is still friendly
Just watched the funniest thing in the backyard, four of my guineas just chased three yearling deer out of their yard and away from their food containers. It was too funny. Two other guineas were sitting on the fence hollering at the deer. I felt bad for the deer. My hoodlum gang is BAD, don't...
OK I have posted a few times about Juju, the house guinea, well this little monster has taught me a lot. First, I don't think she knows she is a guinea, she follows me, the dog, or the cats from room to room. She tries to eat EVERYTHING; my food, dog food, cat food, and her own but prefers the...
This is Juju, my house guinea. He sleeps on top on the bird cage, perches on the TV, tries to catch things in the TV, and follows me from room to room. Hope you enjoy.
I was thinking about possibly showing the little keet I am hand raising but don't know where to begin. Does anyone here show theirs, what all is involved? I would like any and all advice. Thanks
I have so thrilled right now, I sitting in the recliner, typing on the computer with JuJu, my keet preening it self on my shoulder. This is so cool. I have been trying to tame him and I guess it is working.
I have 8 guineas, 7 males 1 female, ( I know not a good ratio). They started a nest several weeks ago, I now have 7 keets, but I noticed it was a male sitting on the nest the whole time, a new nest has been started and a male is sitting on it. AND its males keeping watch over the keets. My hen...
My guys and 1 hen alerted me to a snake in the yard yesterday. I had walked out of the yard to go feed the horse and on my way back I noticed all the guineas had made a semi circle and were QUIET. I started trying to see what they were up to and right before them lay a snake right where I had...
My third keet semi hatched out yesterday, I help it out a little. Well its in the Keet mansion with the other two that I have so far; I noticed that its toes did not stretch out they are still curled in. It looks like little clubs, the toes are there just not out like the other two keets. Should...
My first guinea keet hatched out . I am so excited. This is my first successful hatch. I have an incubator with about 18 more eggs waiting to pip, I noticed one is working on it. I hope it hurries so it can kep the other company, I feel so bad because it is all by itself. I also have a big...
OK I have a guinea hen laying eggs, 9 so far, but she won't sit on them. Am I doomed not have keets running around? I was so looking forward to this. This is the first time these guineas have laid eggs. What can I do to help them?
I so proud of my guineas- this morning I watched them chase a fox out of the pasture away from my chickens and their babies. It was quite a site to see. That fox was no match against 8 guineas chasing it. I am so proud of them, I never knew they would do something like that.
I have 8 guineas of mixed sexes, I have noticed one that will run up under another guinea and and make a "cheaping" noise. Why is it doing that? Is some type of submissive thing they do? This is the first batch of guineas I have ever had and I have fallen in love with them. I love my guineas but...
