I just answered a grasshopper question and realized I am in the same boat. I need guinea hens! I can't order them until May from McMurrays. Anyone know where I can get them ASAP before I lose everything?

Just be aware of how guinea sound. Their call is raucous, constant and irritating. They fly so keeping them confined is difficult. A neighbor had one and it visited regularly and woke me often.

LOL - our neighbors' guineas have become the neighborhood pets - they go everywhere. Out here they aren't too noisy, though. At least not as obnoxious as roosters. -C

http://metzerfarms.com/guinea.htm is a great site and cheaper too plus I can get half the amount of guineas!
Thanks, cchiovitti!

You're welcome! I got my ducklings and goslings there a few years ago and they were all healthy and now I have my own little self-replicating home flock of duckies :-) -C
