My sister and her adult daughter live in New Mexico - I know that some of their mornings are even colder than ours(Midwest) but, they heat up pretty fast.

I think guineas would be great for "burglar alarms."

I think guineas would be great for "burglar alarms."

Why? are they loud? I don't have any of those.

 

[drumstick diva]

guineas are LOUD and alert to everything like a different colored pail. On the other hand they are known to mob snakes and escort them off the property.

Yes indeed, guineas are loud. They’ll let you know if someone pulls into your driveway. If you have the room, they are great and low maintenance.
