New to Guineas!

[Granny Hatchet]

looking at ur pic. i wondered, what kind of food do they have there? it looks like cracked corn or something that size? keets are different than chicks, they have to have food in front of them all the time and they are not old enough for corn peices. thinking wrong food also cause pbs and sore bottom

These are my little guys!

We had chops mixed with the chick started (dont ask why my mom did it for some reason) and that picture was the first day. I have been sifting the larger chops out and giving them just the mash. I plan on convincing my parents to buy some feed for them from our local Hirshes feed store. what feed would you reccomend?

i feed my guineas flock raiser from tractor supply, but any thing thats not medicated with at least 22 per cent protein should do. and buy the crumbles not pellets. when they get older ,they love white millet seed, u can train them with it. good luck

Gooe news! I talked them into buying Purina Startena. The one that had PBS is also doing better now. he just needs time to get his strength back up!
