Next year i am wanting to get different colors of guineas, i only have 5 colors. And i want to get basically every color i can. But i have never had keets or chicks shipped before and im want to no if guineafarms is any good. They have i think 25-30 different colors at good prices.
One of my dads friends gave us 25 free chickens all were silkies but 4 and one RIR roo and 1 barred rock hen but i've never had anything but dual purpose chickens and dont know what breeds these are. Now we have 51 chickens
I hatch 4 baby guineas together. They are only 2-4 days old. 2 of them can obviously see--they run all over when i feed or water them. But the other 2are very dousy always sleeping or laying down and i havent seen them eat. They also both have little white dots in their eyes. Are they blind...
