Hello!
In the future I am wanting to have Guineas to raise, breed, and sell.
My parents have given me a 5 acre back pasture up the hill from their house to use and build on.
So I want to have a small house there, my dad even said he would help me with building plans for my house or helping me move a house here (trailer house or tiny house).
I am wanting to have guineas and bantams because they are the RAGE here.
I just want to know what all I will need to have these guys.
I already know that I want them to be confined as much as possible. It is heavy predator territory where the pasture is, and it is surrounded on 3 sides by heavy dense forest.
I know that they are flighty birds, and will roost in trees if not trained to go into the coop.
What is the minimum floor space I need for a coop and run if I was to confine them?
Can I house them with chickens or bantams?
What do I need to watch out for if I do plan to breed and sell the keets?
Any other advice anyone else has to give me would be greatly appreciated!!
Thank you so much!
