    female Guinea Fowl with swollen abdomen

    Hello, I have a female guinea fowl that has a swollen lower abdomen, like a bag hanging. She is eating, drinking, and foraging as usual. She is about two years old. Have any of you had experience with this or know what might be the cause? Any helpful information is appreciated. Thank you

    Poll: do you feed pellets or crumble?

    Hi! So I was reading some threads about problems with crumble and problems with pellet feed. Personally, I think it depends on the brand. Please vote and type what feed brand you use.

    Flock Party Opinions

    Hi, I got a flock party waterer, and I prefer it over harris farm's brand. The plastic is thicker and I prefer blue over red. What are your thoughts? APPLIES TO ANY BIRD! :) 🦢🦆🐣🐓🦃

    Maggots & Flies

    I don’t know if this is the right section to post this but I hope it is.. I’m not sure how much of a threat flies or maggots pose to guinea fowl or chickens but ever since I placed my guineas outside in their pen flies have swarmed and swarmed. A few weeks ago I noticed maggots in the mud/dirt...

    Guinea fowl research!!

    Hello all, I’m currently researching how to keep and care for guinea fowl and would love some advice. I have read a few articles posted here but I’m having a hard time figure out how to keep them. Can they be kept with chickens? If not can they at least be nice from afar? Ive read that they...

    Guinea Keets With Diarrhea! Is This Serious?

    I noticed a couple days ago that my older guinea keets — probably around 2-3 weeks old or maybe older but not sure — were having diarrhea. I’m not sure how long its been going on but I’m not sure if I should be worried or not. Sometimes they have a normal solid poop and then they have a very...

    New and my keets are dying!

    I'm new to raising keets so I'm not entirely sure what to do but I've done my best to research as much as possible. I ended up with 19 keets when a mother guinea hatched her eggs and left one behind. I took in the lone keet to try and raise it well enough to return it to the mother but then got...

    Book suggestions?

    I love having books and reference guides on hand for quick answers and reading material (book worm). I’d like to learn more about raising guinea’s, I have some eggs incubating, and I’d like to learn more besides pins and boards I’ve found on Pinterest. I’ve had hens in the past but they were...

    Pinless Peepers and Guinea Fowl

    My guinea fowl are being absolute bumholes and harassing my chickens. I’m looking into pinless peepers and bumpa bits as a last resort before I might have to rehome them to a guinea flock. I asked for females but pretty sure I got given 4 males, never seen an egg the whole time I’ve had them...

    Guinea Fowl do best free ranging?

    We have 20 chickens 4 ducks all in an 1/4 acre enclosed area with an electic fence. We do have trouble with foxes around at night. From what I have read Guineas like to be able to fly around a lot. So I would like to hear, if other folks free range their guineas during the day and put them in a...

    Guinea Fowl Body Language Question - What Does it Mean?!

    Hello Guinea Fowl experts! So, I had a Guinea keet show up randomly in my yard this summer (about 2 weeks old) and he has been with my chickens (about the same age) since then. I’m pretty sure he’s a boy (haven’t heard the buck wheat sound from him and he’s coming on 7 months old now). He...

    Intelligence?

    I like to say "Guineas are stupid people." And I say this with humor and affection. They can be clever... to an extent. But how smart are they? ALL of my guineas can easily jump/fly over the fence to free range. They do this regularly. This is intentional. But... getting them BACK into the pen...

    They're at it again!

    Title says it all! I went out to feed and water the flock and found the little ones on an adventure! They all came back to the pen when they saw the feed, but it was still fun to see them explore!

    Ornery Fowl

    This morning, when I went to get fresh water and feed, everyone was accounted for. By the time the water was put out... I had one juvenile guinea missing! It was easy to listen and hear the familiar chirps coming from the woodline trees- and it was just as easy to see a little white blob on one...
