From september's hatch

[flyfishinguy]

This is 17 mixed guinea's..........Start date was august 28th Hatched on september 23rd and 24th. This is my first time at rasing guineas.......I plan to keep them in the brooder another 4 to 5 weeks then will acclimate them with the chickens ....................Looking forward to adding them to my barnyard

They really are cute and look nice and healthy! Do you know what color the one in front is? I don't think I've seen one like that before.

ya know........ Im not sure.............The lady I got the eggs from said they where mixed guinea's so it will be interesting to see the adult color......

I'd love to see what they turn out like. It's a beautiful color.

Hey flyfishingguy,your guineas look great.I just had a batch of guineas hatch myself and am a little dissapointed because I had one guinea pip ,completely developed ,looked perfectly well (I opened the egg myself),but was not able to break the shell and died inside the shell.Another two hatched with twisted toes ,and cannot walk on their own,I cannot figure out what happenned ,4 of the seven came out perfectly well and on time,has this ever happened to you?
