Hello! One of my 7 guineas (6-7 months old) has always been a bit funky - a bit more stupid and bold - so I assumed she was a he until I caught her making the female call multiple times. Now, she is the only one not laying and not only are her wattles and horn (I’m not sure of the terms) much larger than the rest of the girls’, but she defends them and their coop from just about everything. She’s a huge brat and she constantly runs chickens down. Is this normal behavior for a flock of guineas with no male? I have a few juvenile males who are deathly afraid of her - which cancels out my plan to integrate them.
 
i have a guinea who is bossy and wont accept my new chickens at all. She is a bully. I also have four new guinea keets that I am hoping once they sound like guineas, she will join them and stop trying to be a chicken.
How is it going with yours?
