are they ever quiet

[jami63]

They say as babies if they are quiet they are warm enough and fed well.Are adult guinea fowl ever be quiet?.Mine talk from the time they come off the roost until they go to bed.Is this normal or are they lacking something?I enjoy them very much but I always worry maybe I am doing something wrong.The come when called and seem healthy.

Guinea fowl are extremely vocal, and you haven't seen anything yet. Wait until they start mating and egg laying.

I have to agree with @sourland .

The only time that my guineas are silent is when they are asleep. The rest of the time there is a constant quiet melodic chatter. They never seem to shut up. Then there are the alarm and mating calls and don't forget the egg song.

Generally - no. Even at night, it seems there are a few that are awake and letting the world know! Hens are more vocal on a regular basis than the roos.
