If you have particular questions about guinea fowl, I'd be glad to answer them (I kept and bred them for a number of years when I was younger).   However, take advantage of the really good sources of info on the Web:

1.  Where would I find out more about sources and care&management of guinea fowl?

 

2.  I'm not sure I could.  In managing to avoid a home in a development with a 'homeowners association', I did have to accept an older home with deed restrictions.  One of the restrictions is against having farm animals.
