I was at the exotic animal auction here on Saturday, and they only had three sets of guineas.

The first two went for $17 apiece.

The other two trios were not far behind, I think went for $16 and $15.

I am gonna beat my guineas butt's that they dont have children yet!

Ha ha ha! That is too funny! Exotic animal auction....hmmmmm. Now we all know where to sell our Guineas at! Sure beats the craigslist prices.

What kind were they?

um, I cant remember the color but it was the common color that is not hard to get. Its just guineas right now are so hard to come by here and everyone wants some, I think a lot of folks lost a lot of theirs during our hard winter.

The feed store says they wont have keets til June or later.

It was probably pearl, that's the most common. Maybe you should hatch some keets and sell them?

You should! I absolutely love my guineas!

I had bators running all last summer and sold about 100 keets for $2 each. Some people were driving quite a ways. When I posted the ad on CL, I thought I would get a few sold, I never imagined it would be that many. I had orders that I couldnt fill.

I hunted nests all summer and robbed a few eggs at at time.
