All male for small flock?

[Queenofnoise]

I only plan to have quail as far as poultry goes, so would I be able to have a small all male guinea flock? Im going to have my quail caged but the guinea roam free/cooped at night. Would having a small flock of, let's say, 3 or 4 males work?

Guineas are a flock bird and do best in large groups. I would not recommend having fewer than 10 guineas.

The only way to buy sexed guineas is as adults. An all male flock will be quieter than a flock with females as there will not be any constant "buckwheating" as the hens call for mates.

If there are other guineas nearby, the males will probably leave as they seek female companionship.
