text: The 1912 Standard encyclopedia of Modern Agriculture noted that:"The number of Guinea Fowl kept (in Great Britain) was comparatively small due to the demand for their meat being restricted to a few weeks very early in the year between the game and chicken seasons.”and because "They had the reputation of being amongst the most ill-tempered of all poultry breeds, making them difficult to keep with other birds."Missionaries introduced Guinea Fowl into New Zealand at the Bay of Islands from India in the early 1860s by the Canterbury Acclimatization Society, some of which were sent on to Nelson in 1864.Other introductions followed, and although most Guinea Fowl are kept under domestication, feral flocks have been reported in the North Island.
