In general, guineas prefer not to lay in the coop like chickens, but instead, they have their own ideas about what constitutes a good nest site. Something hidden and out-of-the-way (and difficult for you to find!) such as along a fence row or under overgrown shrubbery or in a burn pile. The website www.guineafowlinternational.org has a forum where guinea fowl experts read and post; questions about nesting boxes, helping guineas decide to lay in the coop, and locating their nests out in the field have been discussed recently. You might find some more, helpful information there.

∙ 15y agoWe always use Dry Hay or Dry brown Grass ( longer grass ) from the yard or pasture. A good bit of it also, even tho the Broody Hen will scratch around in the nest and "Make it her own". Twist it around and make a small rounded nest. We always use Dry Hay or Dry brown Grass ( longer grass ) from the yard or pasture.
