Fig 01- Two Guinea fowls, roaming around.

We might wonder: why do people raise this kind of bird?

The flocks could attack snakes entering backyard or garden. The birds are good to control insects, include:
- deer ticks
flies
- grasshoppers
- crickets
- Asian lady beetles

Some people raise guinea fowls for meat and eggs. They can produce eggs about 100 eggs per season.

The seasons depend on areas, could be between:
- March to September
- April to October
