what is the female to male ratio for guinea fowl? Can a hawk kill a fumes fowl or are they too big? I have some peafowl and the Hawks don't mess with them.

The male to female ratio can be 1:1 while some people keep as many as 5 hens to 1 cock.

Full grown guineas are small enough to make a nice feast for a hawk. Owls in particular really like guineas.
