Mississippi Mixed Flock

Guinea fowl and curse words frequently go well together.

Welcome to Backyard Chickens. Guineas do tend to be a bit loud.

And dumb, like really dumb, and mean. They're funny though

They are funny. A couple of years ago I was at a Zoo and first a turkey flew just over my head and scared the daylights out of me. Then a guinea whizzed by flying lower. Luckily a staff member explained it to me. She said the guinea thought the turkey was it's mother and was chasing it all around the zoo.

Mine follow my rooster like puppies. Sometimes the littlest one will break off to hang with my hens, but generally both parties get upset if they can't see each other.
