The Girls had fun getting in my way and jumping up on the bail of hay.

she’s still broody after being taken away from her nest ?
I’d be very careful when introducing her to the keets, broody guineas are crazy.
I tried to move one with keets into our barn last year because of a storm forecasted for the next day and she started attacking her keets and ended up killing two.
I ended up raising them in a brooder and reintroduced them to her when they were 6 weeks old.

Thanks for the tip! I'm picking up the keets tomorrow. She seems to have calmed down somewhat as of today but I'll keep them separate from her in the brooder for a few weeks at least, so she's more adjusted and they are bigger. Just to be safe.

Suggestions anybody? Asking for someone on a Facebook group chat. She says her neighbors hen's beak won't shut. she doesn't know what happened or what to do for her. She's thinking someone maybe kicked her, or a dog attack but no missing feathers or blood. Any thoughts?

A person recently found string at the back of the beak that was keeping the mouth open

Good morning/evening all

Besides the broody hen, all's well in the coop. Cinnamon is showing no signs of sickness, there's no bumble or swollen eye on Jazzy.
