They are no match for areal predators, that’s why takes out a few of my birds every year. Coyote sand foxes take hens at night that go off in the bush and nest.
Pearl Domestic guineafowl, sometimes called pintade, pearl hen, or gleany, is poultry originating from Africa. They are the domesticated form of the helmeted guineafowl (Numida meleagris) and are related to other game birds such as the pheasants, turkeys and partridges.

Hell yes. They keep ticks away and they are better than guard dogs.
Very useful fowl
They can warn you when predators or strangers are around but they can be noisy
What is the original color? Pearl?

I’ve met you we had the polish roster
Ok
These are extremely noisy though.
I reckon you’re right- make good alarms & insect exterminators-males have a very different sound to the females- very hard to tame
@@poultrypete_ alarm is fine, but my guineas scream like crazy for hours for absolutely no reason! 😡
I love their sound.
Crazy
