The coop is not huge but adequate for three guineas. Yes they can all roost where they want and have little nooks to get away from one another. I have been letting them out for the past few days to get fresh air and they have been visiting our neighbors again. Her feathers were all ruffed out...
Here's an update on Pavi's condition. She was frowing feathers back but not seems to be going crazy in the coop and bangs her head everywhere, resulting in her have scabs or broken skin over her bony plate aboc\ve her eyes! She can fly fine and has been out three days in a row. Today was a bit...
KrisH love your advice!!!!! I am originally from Texas, west Texas. So I know about the clay soil, the wonderful way people like their space in driving and in line, so do I! I would love NOT to drive in snow. I would love not to have a snowplow on the front of my 19 year old Suburban. Matter of...
Okay dadgumit! I'm packing up my birds and dogs ( and the hubbie) and heading to Georgia., or California! I have had it with the cold! It has been worse but these old bones don't want to deal with it any more!
Okay, I think we have passed the coldness test with flying colors! or at least with Pearl Gray ones and white! The temps were down to -7 (F) with a windchill of -35!!! The winds were ferocious last night! I worried that the glass would somehow get dislodged off of the door laike the last big...
Good one Peeps! At least her outside stuffing! She is looking better each day and is active in the coop and eating well. The skin doesn't look so pale anymore or sore A few small down feathers are still there in odd places she still looks like she has been through the tumble dry cycle with...
Well last night didn't get as cold as predicted , thank goodness! Snow to night so the temps wont drop as low. Pavi is doing fine. She is looking a bit strange feather wise but seems okay, Even walking with neck skin exposed not hunched down so it must be warm enough.Got the extra protein in her...
Oh thanks Peeps! No they have learned the hard way last year and this that being in the trees is no fun! I still am so upset over this whole incident! I really didn't think she could get way and was gone! The pup was not supposed to be out with out her leash when the guineas were out. Live and...
Hey guys, it has been a while since I have been on here. However My bulldog pup, 7 months old, got one of my guineas. Didn't kill her but she sure lose huge clumps of feathers all around her neck, her chest and one side of her rear. So lots of skin is exposed! Poor baby! My question is that...
Oh I am so excited for you! I wish I could offer some help in advise about the turkeys but I haven't owned or had much to do with turkeys so I really do not know how they would interact.
I do know that your children and you will be so taken by these unusual birds! Please keep them out of any...
I am so sorry for your loss! I lost two that I still don't know what happened but my other three are doing great! Which I am so grateful. I know how bad it hurts. They really get under your skin and soon become family!
My one lone egg didn't hatch unfortunately! I had started out with 14 and one by one they died off! No more I just feel so bad that I somehow screwed up again!
You are more than welcome for the info. If at anytime you want to talk or share feel free to PM me. I really don't know what I would do without my sweet silly guineas!
Hey JLeighI am wondering the same thing! I thought that the eggs were to hatch last week but then as I was about to turn the bator off I noticed this was an egg from 6/15 that I didn't put in right away. It should of hatched today but nothing. The air sac is at a slant as it should be and the...
