Some questions about French Guineas.

[Cooking4max]

I do have chickens, and ducks as well as a lot of other animals......,the ducks, guineas, and chickens all share the same coop. They free range the yard during the day and all go back to sleep at night. Like PeepsCA said, I think they never learned how to roost as keets, because the chickens that are bigger than guineas still fly up to the roost at night easily, the roost is only about 4 1/2 feet high. Im going to try adding some lower roosts.

Although they were cooped up by their previous owner, they seem to integrate with the rest of the guineas very well, and i see them foraging in the grass and running around. They only look about 4 months old, so Im not expecting eggs from them yet. I did hear once before that French are only pearl, I though they might still be french since only two or three flight feathers where white. But if French guineas only come in strictly pure pearl, then Il consider these as Jumbos.

Heres some pictures I took. The ones in the grass are the regular guineas.



The "jumbo" ones were hanging out in the dirt with the regular white guineas when I took the picture

Do you know anyone who wants to sell some adult female guinea's. My males are crying for some mates
