I have had my chickens and guinas together since the fall. They seemed fine until lately. Am wondering if it has to do with the weather and mating season coming up. My hens are really getting it. I thought maybe it was because of the roosters but I have seen the guinas taking a round out of a few of the chickens or maybe more roosters so am pretty sure its the guinas...I have 10 guinas and about 4 of those males. Last year was the first I had them so am very new at this. Was wondering if anyone would have any ideas. I did pull some of the males and it seemed alot calmer today. Am wondering too if they need more protien then the chickens? I don't have a constant supply of hen scratch for them so I was wondering if doing that would help too...Thanks in advance...
