Good Morning Georgia! Any body need some guinea keets? Boy, do I have a batch hatching out! My last hatch of the season and there are already about 40 out of 72 hatched. It is always like Christmas all over again--of course then I have to start feeding them!!!!
I do love my guineas though! And they do keep down the tick population here. They may be keeping down the snakes but we have killed 4 copperheads this season already, including one that bit my little wiener dog this past weekend. One of the male guineas did sport a big swollen neck for about a week, which is a sign he was trying to do his job--he just got a little too close!!!
Anyone else following the Paula Deen thread on BYCF? Might interest those in the Savannah area. She had adopted a bunch of chickens and is now being told she can not keep them all. Interesting thread as what I had heard on the news was a little different than what is coming out here. Anyway, just interesting if you are a chicken person.
