I can't seem to find an answer to my silly question in another thread...so excuse me if it seems like a goofy question. So, some may have read my article a couple weeks back about my beautiful, sweet hens being killed by a stinking mink at our new house. You all had awesome suggestions! We are getting some traps for them.
Now, I have a new problem. My sister spotted these "mink" climbing on top of the ROOF of the shed at 2 in the afternoon!!! My husband ran for his gun, but by the time he got back they had jumped off the roof and ran away (Boy was he mad, too). She said they were huge! That same day, I noticed my neighbor that lives on the same creek had some Guineas running around. I've always heard that Guineas are loud, obnoxious, weird (seriously haha), but that they make awesome guard dogs. Is that true? Would they literally attack the mink when they come back, or just make a bunch of noise?
Sorry, if this is a weird question. I'm just trying to find a good long-term solution to this issue.
