Clipping of wings

[Amaan Ali]

I have clipped wing of male guinea fowl. Can anybody tell me, clipping wings of male guinea fowl made him sexually inactive for sometime, as he is not mating with guinea hen.

Clipping would not affect mating in guineas. Guineas do not seem to mate as often as chickens. When I had guineas I rarely saw mating, but the eggs were always fertile.

Anything that upsets their routine can affect guineas including their mating habits.

And sometimes clipping wings is often dangerous, they may become easly meal to predators...

You clipped his mojo! I live in an area with heavy predation from the ground and the sky above. All of the guinea I raised and tired to slowly acclimate with older birds were killed and or disappeared. This may help during the early stages of being raised but be very cautious of letting them free range w/o protection. I lost 30+ last year to hawks, raccoon and fox ultimately a mink was “removed” which seemed to leave a massive body count behind.

I am living in area where predators are rear because we have concreate wall so guineas never go out... Only predators are stray dogs but are outside the maingate.
