Deb, he had them in barn stalls, separated by age I think because there were also some Barred Rocks, younger, and the Ameracaunas were in another. Plus there were older (banded) ones in a big area outside the barn.

I think we have a 8 box nester or something like that. I think we have around 11 hens, not counting these new ones.

One mother guinea hatched a keet. Sitting on a full nest and only hatched one! Hilarious! we think it was an old nest because there was another abandoned nest in the asparagus. Now there's still one in the sweet potatoes that Ira built a shelter to cover her and they discovered another one brooding in the peppers!
Now it's a matter of keeping them alive after they hatch because they won't go into the coop at night like the rest of them.
