Usually we re-locate the netting every 7 days during the warmer months and there are a few spots where "his" tree will be quite a ways away. Guess we'll find out soon.Carolyn at Walnut Spinneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06982368470253333616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6951421301916538500.post-23765307624385996642010-04-07T08:10:17.801-04:002010-04-07T08:10:17.801-04:00We have nine guineas (formerly a dozen) and they&#...We have nine guineas (formerly a dozen) and they're great. They used to go up into the coop at night, but as soon as spring peeked its head around the corner they began roosting in the pine trees in the side yard. They seem pretty safe up there and since the pines stay green all year it's a good spot. They're also right outside our bedroom window and serve as great intruder alarms!<br /><br />We feed them "Game bird feed" which is kind of a mash and is available at most feed stores.<br /><br />Good luck and have fun with your new bird!Everetthttp://www.livingasimplelife.comnoreply@blogger.com
