We would never say a thing, We all do things with our birds, the spouses do not understand or like. Actually I look at it as if it is her fault. She married me knowing what I am and would do. So the chicks on the counter is her fault!



Dang I like chick pictures!!

This is true.....although I would never admit such a thing in front of her.

For all you guinea experts out there. If a single guinea was raised from a chick (or whatever baby guineas are called) by chickens, would said guinea continue to follow the flock or would it get the flock outta there and be a belly button?

If a single keet was raised with a flock of chickens, it would tend to stick with the flock of chickens. But because it is a guinea it would still tend to become a bellybutton because guineas have different traits than chickens. If it happened to be a hen, it would tend to work out better than if it was a cock.

Guineas are flock birds and their tendency to be feather pullers is an inherited trait that the other poultry will not like.
