Our Guinea

Santa Fe, TX(Zone 9b)

We bought 5 baby Guineas. This is the only one left. The racoons killed 3 of them, a car one. He and his mate had a nest of about 20 eggs, all of which hatched. We could not catch them, and they all died from wet grass exposure by the third day. This nest was next to the dog yard and the racoons left it alone. The next nest she hid out in the bushes and the racoons got her and all 20 eggs one night. He flirts with my wife a lot, but lets no one come close.
His favorite food is Ticks. We have not seen a one since we have had him. Since he is a male, he is also quite most of the time.
