yak yak yak, how do I get them to be quiet at night?

Maybe try making them their own condo in the back 40? Away from the house and all that. They're such amazing little things, just very noisy.

Amazing is right! I love them! They make better guard dogs than guard dogs. And are so entertaining to watch.

How old are they? If well established, have you considered letting them stay out all the time? Just leave the run open so they have access if they want it...

I'd personally get rid of a few and then move their home a little way off from the house.

I agree. Mine are never confined. They may need to find there own place at night where they feel safe, comfortable and warm.

The thing about guineas is they are incredibly brave, but not bright. I watched an entire flock run at a fox one day, all but one that ran to the 'humans'. They all died a horrible death one by one. So, I wouldn't put them too far out.

Possums are good. We have or resident ones that live under our shed along with an armadillo (I'm no sure what they eat).

They'll eat chickens, small ducks, eggs....and they can be down right mean....

Then you are not 'directing' them if you are having these issues. And are you sure you don't have a wild man causing that issue? You described a human perfectly. =)

Oh, I'm sorry, I'm not having any issues with any predators, my dogs keep em run off, or dead. But I have friends who have had issues with them, had, being the key word there.

Nah you're fine, they can be little bastards. lol..Some people I know love them around, some prefer they'd vanish.

Like that farm name though, really good.
