Pastel the Rooster
Crossing the Road
Dear Aurora,
I am a white female guinea hen named Ridges. Mom loves me the most- She says so every day. I want to hatch her out some of my keets.
She has gotten to hatch out some of my keets herself, don't ask me how, I highly doubt she went broody because she came out every day, and there were no keets.
I have a wonderful nest that I share with my awesome big Pearl sister. Her name is Madame Pearl, but she pecks me unless I call her Madame, or Maddie.
A few days ago I realized that she started hanging out with MY boyfriend. They started trying to stay out at night together, but luckily Mom put them both away in the coop.
I always like to perch next to my boyfriend, but Maddie has started shoving me out of the way. When I puff my feathers up, she pecks me. I end up sleeping as far away from her as possible.
I feel like I should stand up to her, but I am tiny. I also really want to go broody, but Mom says no. She says that since I am such a vibrant white color, something will pick me off and she would cry for days.
She tells me that if lay eggs in the coop and go broody there, she will be fine with it. It is so annoying, being shoved around by my awesom-awful sister, and wanting to go broody, but not wanting Mom to pick me up off of the nest.
Oh, yesterday Mom thought that I was broody because I was on the nest for a while, and I was hissing at my boyfri- Ex-boyfriend.
I am sure you have dealt with questions like this, but guineas are so much different then tame chickens.
Guineas will headbutt preadators. I do it to Mom all the time.
We will also make awful noises to make Mom think we are being killed.
It is so much fun. We do kill snakes and eat bugs though, so we are worth tons.
We don't eat gardens, unlike you rude chickens.
I am talking about everyone but you, Queen Aurora.
I doubt you have ever dealt with a guinea problem before, but I would greatly appreciate it. Oh, I may not have a beard, but I am very sassy and I have pearly white plumage.
Yours truly,
Princess Ridges.
