My Guineas are entertaining! Video

[Lisa Pedro]

oh wow thats amazing, and i was just going to get any age possible guinea and then introduce them to my flock when they are about 8-12 weeks old would that work. My flock of hens are all different ages and they get along just fine

I think that by putting the Guineas in with a little hen that really liked me, she showed them not to be so frightened. That was one big difference I noticed, the chickens look forward to seeing you. The guineas always seem to think you are there to eat them, lol. So I think that little hen showed them I would not eat them and they would climb on my hands with her. If you can put day old guineas under a broody (chicken) hen, that might be the way to go.
