Guinea Fowl
Guinea Fowl for Sale Online | Farm-Raised Keets & Adults | Feather Flock Farm
Looking for guinea fowl for sale? Feather Flock Farm raises and ships healthy guinea keets and adult guinea hens to farms, homesteads, and properties across the United States. Guinea fowl are one of the most practical and underrated birds you can add to your land—and once you’ve kept them, it’s hard to imagine the property without them.
Guinea fowl are legendary natural pest controllers. A small flock will systematically patrol your property for ticks, grasshoppers, beetles, and other insects without the ground-scratching damage that chickens cause to lawns and garden beds. They are also highly alert watchbirds—their distinctive alarm call reliably announces predators, strangers, and unusual activity on the property long before other animals react.
Why farms and homesteads keep guinea fowl:
- Outstanding tick and insect control—a single guinea can eat hundreds of ticks per day
- Natural alarm system — they vocalize loudly at the presence of predators or strangers
- Hardy and low-maintenance once established — they largely fend for themselves on pasture
- Produce small, rich, flavorful eggs prized by chefs and home cooks
- Low feed cost compared to chickens — they forage aggressively and supplement their own diet
What to expect from our guinea fowl:
- Available as day-old keets or adults depending on season
- Helmeted guinea fowl — the most common and practical homestead breed
- Ships with live arrival guarantee on every order

Frequently Asked Questions
How many guinea fowl do I need for tick control? For effective tick control on a typical residential property, most experts recommend a minimum of 6–10 guinea fowl. For larger acreage — 5 acres or more — a flock of 15–30 birds will cover the ground more thoroughly. Guinea fowl work best when allowed to free-range across the full property.
Are guinea fowl noisy? Guinea fowl are among the louder farm birds, particularly the females, who produce a distinctive two-syllable call that carries considerable distance. Males make a one-syllable chirp that is somewhat quieter. If close neighbors are a concern, this is worth considering before purchasing. On rural and semi-rural properties, most keepers find the sound a manageable trade-off for their pest control value.
Can guinea fowl be kept with chickens? Yes, guinea fowl and chickens coexist well in shared outdoor spaces. Guinea fowl tend to establish dominance early but rarely cause injury to chickens once a pecking order is settled. They do best when given adequate ranging space rather than being confined to a small coop together.
