Look what popped out this morning, baby Guinea Fowl (Keets)

They look sort of cute now but in a few weeks they'll be real ugly  
Still got 2 more to go but these 3 are doing really well

Last 2 hatched, but Mum had pushed them out of the nest & they were dead this morning  

But hey ho had some really good hatches this year and the Runners are due a week today, life goes on

Gosh that's horrible.  Glad you've still got some left to enjoy though.  And they do look v.cute.  Although like you said they don't look great in the long term but are very tasty!

Hey Fifitrix, just noticed you are in Warsash, I know a landlord in a pub there , Martin, can't think of the name of the pub, but they have lovely flowers & a lovely menu!!!!

Yes, I'm guessing that'll be my local which is called The Jolly Farmer.  The landlord there is Irish and called Martin O'Grady.  It's literally round the corner from me.  Excellent Beer and a great play area so we often frequent it  

Have you been down this way at all?

Thats the one........actually he is a really good friend of my Mum, I met him a couple of years ago when I was on my way to France from Portsmouth, he is very high up in the BII (Licensing) We had a few probs with neighbours when we were in our pub, he helped us out. Lovely pub    Small world  We're originally from Crawley onlt been here 18 months or so, escaped to the country

Just as I was about to dispose of the 2 dead ones one moved :shock:

It's spent the day down my bra, gone round local A*da & the garden centre, once home it was back on it's feet again, so I'm now trying it one more time with it's mum  :?

There's never a dull moment a here at Bonkers
