They don't roost

[Wackums]

I have very few guineas that roost at night, I'm talking I've never seen more than 6 up there. Every night they're out in the run (I have 16 guineas and 1 bany rooster who thinks he's a guinea), a couple standing underneath the rafters, and a couple in the rafters. Why? I recently moved them in there and they haven't had a rooster before, so I tried to show them by placing a few up there, they've showed me they can fly up to them, but they just don't do it. It's been pouring rain and they stayed in the run

How old are they? Put out lower roosts and gradually make them higher maybe? Sometimes they don’t seem to roost as much when they’re young, I’m sure they’ll get it.

I've had birds that just didn't like to roost and that was just how they were so you might have birds like that too
