Hey Bob since you have guinea fowl would you take 2 more? I have some lovely young ones that are now 7 weeks old. Wanted to see them grow up but my sister doesn't want them and my hubby and I will be leaving in Jan.
Had no trouble at all having chickens and turkeys run together. The black head problem is mostly in the wetter climate. I would raise the turkeys in a different coop tho. They eat a lot more then chickens.
We have a little hauling trailer we want to sell. It is a mostly gutted out pop up trailer. 8 1/2' X 6' Back lights work and the tires are good. Have a spare tire also. THis is a pop-up that we bought to camp in and then found out it was so rotten in the wood that holds up the top that it...
Thanks, We are a couple both on disability and live with my best friend. We really don't have a place that is our own so we hope this will be a fordable way to live for awhile plus see stuff we haven't seen before.
Funny but I just turned 60 on the 12th and it feels like a mile stone! I don't...
Well folks, My DH and I have a new home and starting in Jan. we will be off traveling the USA for 6-12 months or so. We will then find where we want to stay but the thing that makes me happy is we have a place until we find that perfect spot for us! We will have our two whippet dogs with us but...
Does anyone know of anybody selling a small camper trailer? WE have a 6 cylinder toyota truck. My hubby and I want to travel for a year or so and live in the trailer. We can't go real expensive. Older, gently used is fine. Thanks
Trill and Buzz my two young Keets are growing some! They are prettier! Still in my room. They don't want the heat any more but worried about putting them outside yet. They are suppoised to be 3 weeks old but wonder if the feed store was off a week?
I kind of think I have both sexes in my two Guineas. They have differant sounds. I read that the hens have a two sullible call and the males a one, being more of a chi chi or cha cha sound. Very young yet tho at only 2 weeks. We don't try to keep roosters but do have one silky rooster now. When...
Twinklin, I also thought it wasn't fleas. Altho we have some fleas crop up in certain homes that have dogs or cats come in from the east, carring them, Arizona isn't all that common for fleas.
I will let everyone know if the guinea fowl go for the ants. I guess sence I think turkeys are...
One of the things I readabout them is they are good with getting rid of bugs and it said ants also. Not sure about that but if they can control the ants then Yeepee!
I have a couple of new friends! Never had Guinea's before. I fell in love with them when I saw them at Dales in Waddell. Named them Trill and Buzz. One is Lavender and one is the normal color. Anyone else have guineas?
I have to agree with you pipemum. Marans in my experience also are dull, boring, dumb, spooks easy and don't come when called. The only cool thing is the dark eggs. Maybe they are more production than pet type chicken.
