RE: Homestead News - Ticks Now Causing Red Meat Allergies
Guineas are funny birds. I love their feathers but not their faces. :-) We had them for a short while until the coyotes and owls took care of them. Dumb, LOUD birds. They didn't like to go into their coop at night but roost in a nearby tree, thus the owl food. We have a nice little forest-y area close to our house....so the coyotes just waited until the birds weren't in our line of sight. Oh well.
We have chickens so maybe they will keep the ticks (and grasshoppers) in check.
They are dumb indeed. We call them an expendable commodity.
