The Kenya crested guineafowl are chicken-sized birds usually found in flocks of 20. The flocks separate into pairs during the breeding season which last from April to June. The birds return to the large flocks when the young are mature enough to fend for themselves. The gineafowl will lay 3 to 4 eggs during mating season. When the chicks become adults, they will be all black, with red skin on their chins, throats and necks. The birds have black feathers on their heads and their flight feathers have white edging and spots.
