Broke down and bought some guinea keets a few months back. Turned em out after 7 or 8 weeks into a 6ft kennel. Clipped both wings but that didn't keep em.
Anyway, I turned out seven and I just heard number 3 get kilt. By the time I ran in the house for a flashlight and firearm all was quiet. They sneak off into the woods to roost but I don't know where. All have disappeared at night. I assume they are roosting in trees which makes me think either an owl or a bobcat is to blame. We have reds in the area but have not seen nor trapped a grey fox.
Not real familiar with guinea fowl or their roosting habits but I imagine they're up in the tree a ways?
