Oh Boy what a day

[Becky89*]

Yesterday afternoon was kinda scary......I let my birds out for the first day and I thought I had patched all the wholes. When my husband and I went to go put them in around 7pm that night, my guinea girl went right through one of the sqaures in the fence. I got upset and Danny and I tried to herd her back into the barn but that didn't work so we just let her go and finally she flew into the barn and I got her back.......I thought she was going to fly into a tree and stay there....she would of been coon bait then

I never knew guineas could fly so well :O

My guineas fly all over the place, sometimes even up on the roof of our elevated house. They sleep in the rafters of the back porch. They decided that was the safest place. Makes a mess, though.

I use to have no problem with allowing my guineas roost in trees or up on the roof of the barn at night, until one night when we had a tornado warning out for our county. I ran up to the barn to get everyone in safe.....The guineas wouldn't go in so I figured they'd be okay they would find shelter and their instinct would kick in.........I lost all six of them and I haven't allowed my guineas to sleep outdoors since......
