no can do, we're down to one rooster and two hens,,, and they're pretty close to pets now... sigh, any recipes for guinies? we have plenty of them around. lol purrrr[:D]


I've always thought it was just the breasts of a guinea hen that are usually eaten, and they're delicious. Basically though, if you can do it to a chicken, you can do it to a guinea fowl. However here are a couple of very French type things. Care to invite me to share? [;)]

I've cooked guinea fowl a few times--they are closer to chickens than a game bird. If you're roasting them, or using some other dry method of cooking, you want to be right on top of things so they don't dry out--i.e. start taking their temperature early rather than later. I wouldn't let them get above 150 before resting them.

When I lived out in the sticks, we had a mommy and 2 baby raccoons (SP?  Looks funny to me!) in the upper part of the old garage.....one of them just wouldn't stay up in the loft....he was constantly falling down, and then he'd be calling for mama, and mama is yelling at him to get his furry little butt back up there.....quite the cacophony.....I'd take the rooster!  Anyway, after seeing this happen a couple of times, I located a long 2 x 4 and kept it handy.  When Junior would plop down on the floor, and I'd hear him, I'd go on out, prop the 2 x 4 against the wall, call for mama, and wait there while she backed down, grabbed Junior and went back up into the loft.  It got to the point where she'd be waiting for me to come in when he'd fall.......and he'd be standing in the open garage door hollering for ME, not mama.  He was actually cute.....then one day, I watched mama and the two babies go off into the woods, and {sigh}...had no more baby to rescue!

What a delightful story, having been involved with wildlife carers, raising orphaned/injured animals to release back in the wild, the hard part is keeping them from imprinting on humans too much. It seems like you just neatly stepped in and aided.....[sm=applause.gif]
