My guinea fowl are being absolute bumholes and harassing my chickens. I’m looking into pinless peepers and bumpa bits as a last resort before I might have to rehome them to a guinea flock. I asked for females but pretty sure I got given 4 males, never seen an egg the whole time I’ve had them.
Has anyone used pinless peepers on a guinea before and did they fit ok? Just cos they have weird and different shaped heads to chickens and the horn bit on the top of their beak would be quite inflexible...I don’t want to hurt them. I’m looking into different options online and the peepers only seem to come in one size. I would rather try the peepers first as the chasing is the biggest problem but they are starting to rip feathers out now too. My poor chickens.
 
My recommendation is that you rehome your guineas. Peepers are not going to change the guinea's behavior. Peepers will not stop the chasing or the attacks from behind.
Hmmm ok that was my worry. I’d still like to try the peepers so I can at least say I gave it a bash but I’m leaning towards rehoming more and more, I honestly don’t really like the thought of them having to wear blinkers forever
