| dcterms.description | Mr E T Takagi, a project engineer with MB Chiweshe Associates (PO Box 176 Gokwe, Zimbabwe), is looking for information on guinea fowl. 'Helmeted guinea fowl, domesticated by Tonga people, run around the veld in the daytime, come back to the homestead in the evening, and spend the night on tree branches. When attacked, they easily fly up. They do not catch Newcastle disease. But a hen only lays about 160 eggs a year, from mid-October to the beginning of April. If hens from other parts of the continent lay their eggs in other months and are brought here, people can enjoy their eggs throughout the year. Those who know the characteristics of these birds, please inform us.' | en |
