Actually when I said "protected" I was referring to the owl. Meaning it's a protected bird and I can't shoot it? It came back at 5am. Ugg! Need Sleep! Oh Video on the way!
If the guineas are protected then the owl can't get to them right? and congrats on getting mama to accept the eggs, My first time broody she just turned 1, is doing an awesome job, I think the key is to not over whelm them with too many eggs to sit on and hatch. just my opinon though. Keep us updated and hope we can see the video..
