Guinea fowl are odd looking birds, strong characters. Mostly they prefer to roost high up on buildings. Noisy beggars too. Ours were well trained and went in at night with the hens much to our neighbours amazement. Sadly they were butchered by a pack of semi feral dogs. They are Spain's equivalent of foxes. We do have foxes but they aren't the nuisance that UK foxes are.

If no one else has any, I'll give those linbks a try. I have had eggs from Moonridge before. Good outfit. :y
