Hi,
I have (6) almost 4 month old guineas. I just found my 1st egg, but broken and pecked at a lot. So here's the situation with my guineas....I have a set up for them in my 12x20 workshop (it's brand new, haven't even used it as a workshop yet lol). They sleep up in the rafters at night. They free range all day, but only go into the shop to sleep. But recently, 2 of my chickens that are 3 months old began sleeping in there too instead of their coop, so when I found the 1st egg, it was broken and the shell was completely broken up. So not sure if a guinea ate the egg or a chicken. My question is, do guineas need nesting boxes?? I have the material to build it but not sure if guineas use them. This is my 1st time having guineas and chickens. And, are guineas or chickens known to eat eggs?? Thank you!!
