Pastel the Rooster
Crossing the Road
Poor Guinea! I have a question that I am going to ask you in one second... I'm gonna get some pictures of Pastels crown and then once I come inside I will post the guinea question. Also I an treating my RIR hen for Bumblefoot right now, but my local TSC and feedstore do not have Vetercyn +plus.Spray it with Vetericyn, available at Feed stores, TSC & online. I had a guinea years ago that was attacked by another guinea. He was so swollen I thought he had lost his eyes. I couldn't get close to him, but everyday a few times I would put the Vetericyn on spray & get his whole head from 10 or more feet away. He healed up perfectly,
Back from feeding my birds; Now, I have two female guineas and 4 male guineas. Four days ago, my females were being treated like royalty like hiw they have been treated by the males all summer. The next day they started being mean to Madame Pearl, my pearl female. They are being fine to Ridges, my African White female . (Sorry if things are being spelled wrong, I am doing this on my phone instead of my iPad so it is making things harder to type) Madame is not wanting to go into the coop at night now... Before she was the age if laying eggs, she and two other females, Lavender Gurl and Pearl Gurl. (My dad spelled their names with an 'U' instead if an 'I' to make them look cool) The three if them and my male lavender, Mr. Lavernder (who has a new home) would stay outside at night. Long story short, Lavender and Pearl Gurl died. In the summer the two females are treated like royalty and Madame mated with the flock leader, while Ridges mated with a middle of pecking order white male. Now my two white males are bullying her and she is trying to stay outside and get eaten... I think it may be because she and the lowest pecking order male, Guineiss ( he is a royal purple) are mates. They have been hanging out and being sweet to each other, and now the others are bullying her and the top of pecking order, Harry is now not protecting her.... please tell me what's going on if you know and if this has ever happened to you! (Sorry if that did not make sense; I was rushing)Poor Guinea! I have a question that I am going to ask you in one second...
