    Hen raising keets

    I have 5 day old keets in a sectioned off area in my coop. The mother has access and pops in and out taking care of her young. How long will she raise them? When can they have access to the whole coop with the other adult birds? Thanks in advance!

    Guinea nest?

    i recently acquired a hen that the previous owner said was laying eggs. I placed her in her new coop with 2 other birds from her original flock. Does she need a nesting box in case she has any more eggs to lay? She seems healthy as it’s been 6 days with no eggs. Please advise. Thanks, Ed

    Guinea being bullied

    I have 6 guineas ranging 11-13 weeks old. They seemed to pick on one every once in awhile.

The smallest...

    8 to 9 week old Guinea fowl not eating live bugs?

    My Guineas are 10-12 weeks old and are pretty much the same. Grasshoppers entice them for a chase, but other bugs like ants are ignored. I’m tempted to get a dozen crickets at the pet store and see what happens.

    Get off the porch!

    My Guineas for some reason love my porch. It’s like a teenage hangout for them. They always leave me those little treasures that I love to step in. I never fed them or brought them to the porch. I have over 3 acres with lots of shaded areas and for the life of me can’t figure out what’s so...

    No luck. At this point I’m guessing a predator took it. Thanks to everyone for the advice.

    Missing Guinea

    A couple hours ago I noticed 1 of my Guineas wasn’t with the flock. I searched around my property with the flock by my side and had no luck. They are all just over 2 months old and free range during the day. There is a million hiding places, but my ultimate fear is a predator took it. Any...

    I currently have 3 guineas that are 5 weeks old. I have the opportunity to get a few more that are a month old. Could I put them in the same enclosure right away? If yes, what do I need to keep an eye on if anything? Thanks, Ed
