Preparations for, and care of Guinea Fowl?
My mom has ordered a small flock of guinea fowl and they're due to be delivered to our home in May. So, with about 2 months to prepare, we are making a list of things to get. Can someone give me a good list of items to have ready for the chicks or keets when they get here? So far we have a container to keep them in while they're little (old stock tank), a heat lamp, and water and feeders. We already know we need chick feed and bedding... so what else?
If you've had these birds before can you tell me a little about maintenance and upkeep? Thanks.

It sounds like you have everything. We made a little roost for ours to sit on (basically just a board) when they were little because they liked to sit on their feeder. We also kept ours in a stock tank for a while. They grow quickly so we had to cover the top of the tank with chicken wire because they could jump out. I hope you're ready for how noisy they are! We only had 6 but you could hear them all over the yard! Enjoy your guineas!

i might propose the same element I did while an business enterprise insisted on giving me a frozen turkey! bypass into your backyard and dig a hollow approximately 4 ft deep by skill of 2ft by skill of 3ft. place the dearly departed interior and fill the hollow. place a tombstone on the grave lamenting this undesirable murdered fowl.
