    Broody Guinea Strange Behavior

    I have a guinea that’s been sitting on a nest. I candled the eggs beneath her and it appears that they are extremely close to hatch, maybe 2-4 days. Yesterday and today she has been getting off the nest more frequently and longer periods of time. Is that normal close to hatch? I’ve always heard...

    HELP WITH GUINEA RGGS

    Mortified. Came home and realized the curtains next to the incubator was open and the sun was hitting it directly, it’s beeping like crazy and it said the temperature was 116 degrees!

    Broody sitting for 35 days

    Hi! My girl went broody full time on 6/5. She should have hatched keets last Saturday. I was told to give her a week longer. At what point do I force her off?

    Too young to breed?

    First time bird owner. When I began my guinea adventure I learned a lot from this forum! I read page after page and was more than prepared for spring to get hectic next year. I got lucky, I ended up with 3 female and 3 male Guineas. All was well up until today. The birds will be nine weeks old...

    Blood in Brooder

    2 questions. 1) I was told to leave food out constantly while they’re babies. Do I keep doing this until they’re out of the brooder? Or do I continue to do this until they’re done being lock downed in the coop? 2) Freaked out when I saw some blood on their roost. I started treating with CORID...

    Training/Introducing Treats to Keets

    I’ve received tons of wonderful advice from this site in regards to treat training keets. I picked up white Millet, mealworms, alfalfa hay, etc because I have no other birds and really need them to cooperate when cooping you for the night so willing to find what they like. But I’m having a major...

I frequently see Guineas around my neighborhood (wandering, screaming, trying to get hit by cars :D) and I’ve been fascinated. So...
