I finally got all mine sleeping in the house again and the younger set of guineas who are constantly molting apparently as I can not keep their wings clipped for more than a week at a time have taken to sleeping in the tree on the limb above the house. They've taken the young turkeys to the dark side as well. I foresee me out in the wet/cold very soon with some scissors...
Good try with the spooky flags though. lol
Uh-oh!!! I would break them of that ASAP - like not let them sleep there one more night - can you get a fishing net to get them down after dark? I got a big one from Walmart in the fishing/outdoors department - the one with the big holes in the mesh did not work and I almost broke a neck sticking through that one before I ran back and got one with a finer mesh. They have both at Walmart, at ours anyway. You want a big open loop but fine mesh on the catcher fabric.
I am not much for clipping wings anyway since they need them to evade predators and for general wellbeing, I think, but I would try to get their little feathered tushes back in the coop before they establish that habit. The owls are already licking their lips, well... sorta.
