My mom has a tick-infested three acres in Maine, and Lyme disease. I'm trying to explore good options for tick eradication. Does anyone have experience (good or bad) with keeping guinea fowl?
Do they tend to stay in their home territory or do they need to be caught and retrieved?

They flock and like to wander, but will roost in trees or a coop. We started ours out in a coop to essentially train them home and it was marginally effective. They have a much farther range than chickens though.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

If you have the time, raise them as keets. They’ll stick closer to home than starting out with adults.

Yeah, that's the option I was exploring. Apparently you can just buy a box of keets by mail order and that's a thing!
