Hi all, I have a whole bunch of questions to ask about guineas!
Can anyone tell me why they keep them? Do people 'do' anything with them? Eggs? Meat? Are they just for interest sake, or pest control? Can they live alongside chickens in their coop?
Lastly and most importantly... how noisy are they? My neighbours have bravely smiled through our roosters' screeches. We won't be keeping the roosters because of aggressive roo issues, but if a guinea's decibel level is somewhere between a BA-KAWing hen and a rooster maybe they are something we could consider. They look like really neat birds.
