Thank you for figuring out the following thing for my change of blog address. Google didn't give me a heads up on that one.<br /><br />Moving like a school of fish. Such an appropriate comparison! And they did their first fence hopping today, fortunately only into our fenced areas!<br /><br />Willow, we have owls too, so that is a huge concern. So far so good on coming in at night!<br /><br />Renee, thanks!<br /><br />Badgerpendous, it's a relief to be going well, LOL. Not sure when we'll be ready for more animals, but someday pigs and honeybees (maybe turkeys).<br /><br />Bettina, they did some new things today and I admit I wondered! The new tricks are hopping fences and situating themselves on the roof of the buck barn. Fortunately everyone went in to roost! That was a relief. <br /><br />Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-72221588149703734352013-09-16T19:11:33.504-04:002013-09-16T19:11:33.504-04:00hm, maybe them moving as a flock can be a disadvan...hm, maybe them moving as a flock can be a disadvantage too - if one of them goes off, the rest might follow?

I have so much READING to do! <br />You will find with the guineas that they will learn how to fly hop sooner than later. After that, you might be shaking that millet over at the neighbors' house. They will be squawking up a storm once they are comfortable. I love how they move around like a school of fish!<br /><br />Farmer Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07596672416236302171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-16208384563053437412013-09-16T00:09:47.837-04:002013-09-16T00:09:47.837-04:00Leigh, I am following your guineafowl experiment w...Leigh, I am following your guineafowl experiment with great interest!
