I wrote about the guineas terrorizing my chickens. All are about 4 months old. they were raised together in the same brooder. Yesterday we saw the culprit grab onto the chicken's wing and drag her about. She was screaming terribly. It was awful. I was able to corner him, and my husband and I put him in a large dog crate. We had to put him in the coop with everyone last night because we don't have another safe place for him. How long should I keep him crated? Is it OK if he sees the others, and they see him?
We should be finished another coop for the chickens today so we can permanently separate them. The runs will be next to each other for now. Is that OK? This is our first adventure with fowl.
Honestly, this has been so stressful my husband and I are wondering when or if we will ever get to the joy part of this.
Thanks for all of your help so far.
