About Guinea Fowl
Guinea fowl are small, hardy gamebirds that mature around 2.5 pounds. Guinea fowl spend much of their day exploring and foraging. They are revered as a natural method of pest control, including unwanted weed seeds and insects. They have become popular for use in controlling ticks, especially in areas where Lyme disease is a problem. They are also great watchdogs, as they are very vocal when anything new enters their territory. Guinea fowl can also be used for meat and eggs. They are seasonal layers and typically lay from March/April to September/October. Mature females can lay 100-125 eggs per year.
Available Guinea Fowl
Our guinea fowl flock have the potential to produce pearl grey, lavender, or pied keets.
When available, keets and juveniles are offered as straight-run only. Keets require a heat source, while juvenile and adult guinea fowl may be safely housed without a heat source.
We do not ship hatching eggs or live birds. Available hatching eggs and birds can be picked up locally in Staunton, VA, with the possibility to meet in Charlottesville, Harrisonburg, or Lexington, VA as our schedule allows. Opportunities may occasionally arise to meet in other areas of the state as well.
Please see our Terms and Conditions page for information on reserving birds or hatching eggs and more!
