I have 17 young hens and 2 roosters all are 18 weeks old. I also have 3 french guineas (2 males and 1 hen). The problem is the male guineas will chase each other and will chase the hens. I am reading that I probably should have gotten 6 instead of 3. The guineas were raised with the chickens, they roost in the coop at night with the chickens, forage with them during the day.
I need expert advise on the best thing to do. Will things settle down? If I raise young guinea to add to the flock will that fix the problem.
I have not had any serious injuries Just want to avoid the possability of anything happening.
Thanks,
