Advice about Guienas .. Please

I certainly will. I truly appreciate the info. They are nearly killing themselves, trying to fly out of the grow out pen. It is opaque on the sides and bottom, but a 2x4 weld-wire screen across the top, and they keep trying to get out of it. The 12'x12' coop will be good for them.

Sounds like they are really wanting out. Good luck with them.

Yes, they are. I just spent today, getting all the coops, ready for use. All three are now fully secure, and functional. The one for the guineas, is pretty tall, about 8'. I put them in there, and they're not quite ready for escape flight. But, they now have a coop, where they can practice flight, and have roosts, both low and high. The low ones will slowly go away, as I see them being used, and try to force them to roost up higher. On the other hand, the turkeys, that are a week younger, are flying pretty well. I need to get their pen, attached to their coop, secured a bit better, tomorrow.
