I need ideas for guinea roosting!

[Mmmk2020]

We have 10 guineas @8 weeks old. They have been raised with chicks from the beginning of their lives. I need to know how to set up a guinea roost for when we let them free range. Would an elevated open-faced box work connected to the coop where they have been raised? We have never done this before! Suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Probably not. They will be more likely to try to return to the coop or to roost on top of the coop.

I have since provided our guineas with their own coop, but originally, I split our chicken coop and gave the guineas their own portion of it. Would that work for you?
