Hi, I am a little new here, and to raising chickens. I have 8 Guineas that are just a couple of weeks away from being set out to forage. I also have 6 Barred Rocks, 1 White Plymouth Rock, and 3 Rhode Island Reds that have all started laying. I have done tons of research before getting my birds and would love any helpful advice. I will try to add some pics later. Thanks!!

Have fun...it can be very addictive....
 
Thank you so much everyone!! It is VERY addicting. My wife is constantly making fun of me for always going out to check on my birds or researching different breeds. She is really going to have a lot of ammo now that I have found this site!!
 
Wait till ticks hear there are guineas in town - they'll probably

Guineas are known to be great tick hunters and also first to give alarms if something doesn't seem right to them.
Of course to a guinea a branch falling from a tree is enough reason to alarm. It should keep your chickens on their toes though. Good luck with your flocks.
 
PS remind your spouse that being addicted to birds is not a bad thing like alcoholism, drug addition, or a life of crime.
