Title: found the secret stash!!
Post by: joyfull on May 06, 2011, 22:56

A couple of weeks ago I suddenly stopped finding my guinea fowl eggs in the nest boxes and now I know why - my lavender guinea is sat in the middle of some nettles on a batch of about 20  :ohmy:. No idea how long she has been there and whether they are fertile (not sure if any of my 3 guineas are males as I have never seen any of them err how shall I put this - perform) but what on earth will I do with all of them should they all hatch?  :unsure:
Just 3 are very noisy but the sound of 23 will be deafening - luckily I have plenty of trees for them to roost in  :D :D
